Title: Windows Media Audio 9???
Post by: jbholtz on November 28, 2006, 09:13:38 pm

Does anyone know if Media Center 12 supports Streaming Windows Media Audio 9??  I've tried to listen to the following link: http://a1913.l2285556422.c22855.g.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1913/22855/v0001/reflector:56422
Which works in Windows Media  Player.  The properties from it show:
Audio Codec: Windows Media Audio 9
32 kbps, 32 kHz, stereo 1-pass CBR

Thanks for the help

At the end of the URL, add &ext=.wma, so it looks like this:

File > Open URL works for me with this change.

A future version may make this unnecessary.

Next build (hopefully available tonight) will determine the proper playback type without any trickery.

Thanks for the help.
