Streaming problems

[kewlguy311]

My streaming works fine in my lan, but at work I can load the page just fine, and when i go to watch live tv it never starts the screen, the windows media starts but the screen stays black, i press play and it does nothing. Any ideas? I forward ports 1755, 8090, and 8129 to my server. I changed the defualt of 8080 to 8090 by the way. Are their other ports I should forward? Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem. Any fix yet?

Don't go to work. Your IT department is blocking ports I bet.
Another option is that your streaming quality is set to high for your bandwidth.

If your on cable... you will have to use the smallest quality possible, and it still is going to suck.

If your on ADSL.... you might be able to go one higher than cable.

Unless your paying big bucks for SDSL @ 1M or higher your not going to get anything close to how it looks on your lan.

I fixed one of the problems, I had remote admin turned on with my router and it used the same port as streaming, now streaming at work works. Right now I only get picture in my recordings if i record avi, i get a blank screen and sound with mpeg. Is their a way to lower my streaming quality and leaving my record quality the same wihile recording as avi?

In the webadmin streaming server settings you can pick your qualities there.

I can only choose the settings if I record in mpeg though, If I record in avi (which I do now) the box is grayed out and wont let me change anything? Is that normal? If i could get my mpeg to work, I would switch it over, but It just gives me a black screen with sound. Thanks for all your posts so far!
