<div>Blame Microsoft for this. Their server
("WMServer") is not a standards-compliant RTSP server.
You will need to find out - from Microsoft - why their server is not
handling our RTSP "SETUP" request. (Good luck
:-)</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>In any case, though, even if you could get Microsoft's server to
work with our RTSP client, VLC would not be able to play this stream,
because we do not handle the (Microsoft-proprietary) "x-asf-pf"
and "x-wms-rtx" RTP payload formats, nor the codecs that
these RTP payload formats carry. (See <<font

<div><br></div>
<div>To summarize: Don't bother trying to play streams from a
"WMServer". Use a non-Microsoft server instead.</div>
