Windows media streaming doesn't work

Postby anatoly » Sep 19 08 4:14 am

Hi everybody
Cannot get a windows stream (.asf) from LAN across wingate
I use a 6.0.4
In wingate the RTSP streaming media Proxy is started at port 554 and this port is open by firewall
In WMP 11 net options tuned same way plus HTTP proxy check up too
And then I try to play any .asf file in WMP 11 from LAN with wingate - no result, without wingate - OK
Is anybody try streaming from LAN?
Will be pleased for advised

I notice there was an RTSP Proxy fix in 6.1; I can't claim that it will fix the issue you are experiencing though. So you might want to put up a test box with the latest version of WinGate so to make sure that you are not dealing with a problem that has already been fixed.
12. Fixed a problem with Interleaved connections in the RTSP proxy.

There are also some Microsoft Knowledge Base articles regarding Windows Media Player and RTSP:

And at the end of the day, a lot of streaming content can pass through the HTTP proxy these days or you can just use the NAT/WGIC connection method.
