Can't Play MP3/WAV over HTTP

[Chaky]

Hello All:

Can anyone tell me why I can't play MP3 or WAV files with the Windows Mobile
5 media player control when the filename is a URL? Even with the Media
Player application on Windows Mobile 5 it doesn't work. If the files I want
to play are stored on the device, no problem. But if I enter a URL it won't
work. My fear is that I need to stream the content, which I don't want to
do. Here is some code that results in a unsupported file type error.
There's a lot of code here, but the main point is that setting the player URL
property to an http:// address doesn't work. Is this really a limitation of
Windows Mobile?:mad: :)

It might be a limitation imposed by your ISP.

This is especially likely if the ISP is a school computer network.

without streaming the content, how is the content going to get to your mobile phone??

unless you copy to your SD card and playback from there. this works for windows mobile and even mobile phone. :)
