Hi ,
Yeah , the firewall wall in Windows XP seems to be the main problem
for getting accelerated Windows media to work.
I have read:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827562
Do we need to open up all the ports decribed in the abowe URL or
can you be more specific as to whats going on
between the Sun-Ray firmware based codec and the windows media
player.
Now, it seems to be a little easier for my VBox3 Virtual windows
XP SP3 machine to start accelerated Windows Media
playing if the brower used is firefox. Is it possible that the "
MMR SUNflash thing" that loads together with IE8 is in someway
making it more difficult for the " MMR windows Media thing " to
start concurrently .
When using both IE8 and Windows Media player we seem to have two
"MMR" pieces of code loaded. do they interfere
with each other ?

Hi Lars,
What type of files are you trying to play? There are some size
limitations on the supported files described in the docs.
Does this happen with the sample fines included with the Windows media
component installer as well? They are in the same place where the
installer is.
Another thing to check that firewalls can block accelerated multimedia
streaming. An easy test is to turn off the firewall to eliminate this.

However using the same setup and trying to use accelerated
Microsoft Video WMV files does not work
the windows Media player freeze up and the uttsc connection to the
windows XP machine seem to crash.
Windows Media acceleration works with the VDI3 set of software ,
i tested last week at a customersite.
Which Version of Virtualbox should I use for SRS5 and windows XP
media acceleration ?
