Hello, anyone have any ideas? We've narrowed it down to it being a domain problem. The videos stream fine when logged in as a local user. Anyone know of any group policies that could be affecting the playing of WMV files? Thanks again.

Hello, First post and I'm asking for help I'm afraid! We're having trouble playing local and streamed wmv videos. Locally: they almost crash WMP and the process has to be ended within task manager. Streamed: the player opens, but the video will not start. The properties box identifies the right url, but it just wont play. We're running WMP11 on XP Pro SP3 from a master image, all drivers are up to date and windows updates installed. Other video formats play fine, it's just wmv that are causing the issue.... Any suggestions/thoughts? Cheers, Ben.
