Multicast will allow for pausing/ff/rew, but you have to have in enabled on your switches etc for it to work. Tim

This is an issue of unicast vs. multicast. How are you streaming it with WMS? Tim From: Mike Gill [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2008 2:42 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Windows Media Services - Pause while recording? If anyone knows of a good forum/list for this I would be grateful to know. I have Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise 32bit and am using Windows Media Encoder to record audio and video content from a capture card. This is content is being recorded to the hard drive and not pushed to Windows Media Services. Then I have an On Demand WMS publishing point set up to use the recorded file as a source. As far as I can tell, this is how you must proceed if you want to use the pause/FF/RW feature of WMP. I can connect from other computers using WMP and view the content. My problem is, I can't pause the content if the recording is still in progress. I only have stop as an option and if I do that I must start over. If I stop the encoder and reconnect from one of the clients, I can pause and fast forward. I'm recording a live meeting which is simulcasted to our location. In case we start a few minutes late, I want to be able to pause the player at the beginning and resume when ready. I'm I doing this wrong? -- Mike Gill ~ Upgrade to Next Generation Antispam/Antivirus with Ninja! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbelt-software.com/SunbeltMessagingNinja.cfm> ~
