Hi All!
I have J River MC 16 setup to output to my Wyred-4-Sound DAC2 with WASAPI-Event Mode - fantastic!
I have the Volume control set for "internal" so Plugplayer can alter the volume - all good.
But...
I want to play this windows .asx stream: http://www.abc.net.au/res/streaming/audio/windows/dig_music.asx
I can only get it to work with setting J River to use the Windows Media player engine.
If I do this, though, I can't use the volume control without manually changing it to System Volume - which then means I can't control the Volume internally if I switch to a J River played file Ahhhh!!!!!
So....
Can anyone suggest a way to play the .asx stream using the J River MC engine and a DirectShow filter.
I have spent 2 hours trying to find what would be required without success!
Any help much appreciated.

Here's the address you need

mms://a1394.l11289737393.c112897.a.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1394/112897/v0001/reflector:37393

Remember - .asx are literally just a container used to try and hide the actual play URL.

Open the file in Windows Media Player

Right Click > Show List

On the item Right Click > Properties

You can then save it in MC.

FYI, Here's the one for ABC Jazz

mms://a1394.l11289737393.c112897.a.lm.akamaistream.net/D/1394/112897/v0001/reflector:52133

Enjoy

And if you're with BigPond and want their IPTV stream URLs as well, let me know

Support for ABC Jazz (and other similar ASX stations) will be added in Media Center 16.0.115 and later.

Thanks.

Much appreciated 
Will give it a go...
Great to hear there will be support for .asx streams coming up.
Cheers,

Should be fixed in Build 115 or higher.

Hi guys,
Have upgraded to version 115...
In Options, I reverted the settings in the file association for .asx back to "Automatic" (ie not Windows engine)
Unfortunately it doesn't work...
Error message:
Windows Media Error:
Unknown error (0xc00d0026)
Not sure what else to do...
Cheers,
EO
