Default Can't load ASX streams ?

Using 1.30 Pro Build 818 under XP SP2, WMP 9 is FULLY INSTALLED. ASX streams play perfectly under WMP9, but I prefer BSPlayer...it used to work then suddenly stopped. Now all I get are "Cannot open file" failures... Suggestions ?

I tried a clean reinstall of WMP9 which did not help. Please DO NOT suggest I "Install media codec 9" as it is installed and these streams play just fine under WMP 9.

Default Same problem.

I have the exact same problem. :x But I use 1.35 Build 823 under XP SP2.
I also have no problem at all playing the .asx in WMP. But BSPlayer won't play it - saying "Cannot open file"...
When opening the .asx in an editor it refers me to a file which is not .asf but .wmv.

Here is the whole .asx-file:

<ASX Version = "3.0">

<REF HREF="mms://wms.dr.dk/storage/auto/Nyheder/udefra/udefra.wmv" />

</ENTRY>
</ASX>


The question is... is this a .asx handler problem? Is ASX Version 3.0 anything new?
How do I get BSPlayer to play this file?
When chaning the reference from "mms://wms.dr.dk/storage/auto/Nyheder/udefra/udefra.wmv" to "http://wms.dr.dk/storage/auto/Nyheder/udefra/udefra.wmv " the URL plays fine in BSPlayer.

Anybody?

Just two dumb questions:
  1. the extension(s) in question are duly associated with BSPlayer? (under Options > Preferences > General > File types)
  2. the last checkbox under General settings (Options > Preferences > General) i.e. "Open locked media files (files in use)" is selected?

Well... thx.
Your questions or suggestions made no difference what so ever. Tried them both.

1. ...duly associated with BSPlayer ? Forgive my ignorance but would it make a difference. It plays other file types, which are associated with other players ?!?!

2. Didn't work either

Any other suggestions?

THX

Stream is working OK in here. Here is the list of WMP codecs I have installed on every system I install (now i have over 100):

asftools310.exe
wm8eutil_setup.exe
WMEncoder.exe
WMFDist.exe
WMPCDCS8.exe
WMPCDCS9.exe
wmtools.exe
wmv9VCMsetup.exe

So, if here is working you probably lack one of the filters/codecs.
