Pocket PC Forum / End Users / Multimedia / July 2004Windows Media Control for Pocket IE
Hello, I am working on a project that provides unicast streaming of on-demand audio content to wireless-enabled (802.11b, 11mbps) Windows Mobile 2003 Pocket PC devices running the Windows Media Control for Pocket IE embedded into a windows form. Does anyone know of any reason why the Windows Media Control will not be able to be used for the consumption of on-demand unicast streaming audio content over a Wi-Fi network? Our custom player will allow the user to move forward/backward in the items of a .asx playlist, as well as play/pause/stop the playback of streamed content. The number of Wi-Fi Pocket PCs should be <= 50 at any time. The on-demand audio content to stream are files encoded to 32kbps, 22KHz, stereo, 2-pass CBR (Constant Bit Rate). Thank you for any & all help given (pointers, thoughts, anything) Panos Hi, i hve an experience in similar task..as i was doin it on video files streaming on live / on demand... 1. As Default i dont think the WMP in PIE will support the Audio on Demand feature..or playback what it does is Get the streaming content from the Media encoder from particular path and port like 8080 and connect it to port and plays the streaming content on the pocket pc 2. When u want to play an demand..u can create a webpages which has links to the audio tracks or the list of it,on the webserver Q: The number of Wi-Fi Pocket PCs should be <= 50 at any time A: this has to be set at encoder level..not on pocket pc -- Thanks and Regards, Arvind -- "eRiva Systems" - Where Technology Meets Life, Every Minute. arvindr@erivasystems.com www.erivasystems.com > Hello, > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > Panos Arvind, thank you for your response. So, if I understood correctly... The WMP in pIE does not stream audio files??? Does it only do "progressive download" to play audio content? Let's say that we can manage to subclass the control so as to manage it, i.e. make it play/pause a WM file in a .ASX playlist, move forwards/backwards in the items of the list, etc, can we be assured that it will stream audio/video files correctly? Can anyone shed some light on the effective usage of the Windows Media Player ActiveX control for the pIE (v8.0) ?

PIE with WMP can receive and play back live streaming of audio/video only thing is it cannot pause/resume from that point.. suppose u paused a audio content on its 30th second and recume after 5 seconds. it will start with 35th second of audio ,not from 31st second..even in playlist (ASX) i hope im not confusing u.. ----- -- "eRiva Systems" - Where Technology Meets Life, Every Minute. arvindr@erivasystems.com www.erivasystems.com > Arvind, thank you for your response. > [quoted text clipped - 87 lines] > > > >. |
