I suspect it's security related. I
have added SP-3 to my W-XP OS recently since visiting the page. . . .

You will not get expert WinXP advice in a NG specializing
in the Win98 OS. Any adviser will probably need to know
your WMP version, OE version, Java settings etc.

Don,
I posted here, I had originally posted in...
microsoft.public.windowsmedia.player.web. My post NEVER posted. I posted
here because I'm subscribed to this group for many years. I wasn't even sure
it would post to the NG.
SORRY

| | | |
Gary, Glen, PCR,
Took to NG microsoft.public.windowsmedia.player...
Gary can play on a newly installed 98-SE OS, and his XP system w/SP-3.
PCR could NOT on 98-SE, got some of the same errors at me. But now he's
fixed, can play entire song, this IS absolutely crazy!!
I've still been checking it out and a media MVP has given more feedback.
Confirmed, these arn't .WAV files but MP3, which I originally discovered. I
saw the stats in the properties on the pages & in WMplayer when I called it
up w/direct link pasting in my browser.
Neil couldn't play the songs at all, WMplayer barfed on him without a gag.
Very strange, I can tell you the songs USE to play entirely for me and not
abruptly stop w/13 seconds left to play.
This IS the home page/INDEX page.
LINK
If you go visit, she calls them .WAV's and they show as .WAV's if you look
in your TIF.
LINK
Above is the SERVER location for the SONG on the INDEX page... called Angels
In Wating and it does carry the .wav extension. *WMplayer WILL OPEN to play
the song or should try, I can play all but 13 seconds.*
IS this not peculiar, how differently WMPlayer IS behaving on this website??
Below IS Neil Smith's response and the response I just wrote him.

that was *very strange* the files were small. And, *I DID* know they were
using the mpeg layer 3 codec, therefore WERE MP3, I mentioned this fact in
my 2nd paragraph of my first post.
** I guess I figured it out... but needed verification, they are MP3, they
would be huge files if they were indeed .wav.
** Yes, the above IS the link to server, will open WMplayer directly, the
song IS playing now as I type, it's 3.36. The properties show it is a MP3
and on the pages she does have the WMPlayer control, it you right click on
the control, you can also obtain the stats for the song. The song playing
JUST ABRUPTLY STOPPED, 13 seconds were remaining to play. I wonder why I
can play the song partially and you *can't* play the song at all??

Rename both the music files and the in-page link on that page to end
in .mp3, and Angelfire's servers will probably send the correct
content type to media player.
I guess Frontpage which it seems you've used could have broken this,
and I also imagine it can be used to fix links across a site if files
are renamed.

** Yes I have had front page, quite some time ago though, actually when I
was using 98-SE. I only have Word, Ppt & Excel at this time installed.

And here's where I step out of the discussion, because whatever the issue
is, I'm pretty certain it isn't in any of the Windows systems that have
participated thus far, or any other PCs. The issue must be in the
construction of the site, the coding of the player, and/or a problem in the
sound file. Not something my brain is up to following.
Good luck!
