You must go into the router's configuration and set a virtual service for the PC that you have WME running on, and map the broadcast port to the PC. In my case, I have a D-Link 614+ router, with 5 PC's. The basic part of the guide is good, but it doesn't cover the port mapping you need to do with most home systems, which are behind a router with built in firewall. You can play it in some other Video Players also but it may require that you replace the in the url with mms://, like mms://192.168.0.1:3044. To view the stream just use the URL you copied above and paste it in Windows Media Player using File->Open URL. If you want to archive the capture specify a locationġ. Choose the bitrate, higher bitrate means better quality but it requires faster internet.ġ. Under Video and audio you can select different video and audio quality templates, I usually use low quality like VHS templates.Ģ. Copy the URL (this is your IP and you must be online when you do this)ġ. I usually use low resolutions for streaming over the net so 352/320x240(NTSC) or 384/352x288(PAL) should be enough.Ģ. Make a new session by click on New session or under File->NewĢ.Click on configure to change capture device default settings, this is different between capture devices.

Under Tools->Options change to NTSC if you live in a NTSC country(USA, Canada, Japan) and PAL if you live in a PAL country(basicly the rest of the world)


Start Windows Media Encoder and close the Wizard.ġ. This guide will explain the basic steps to stream live TV over the internet or your local network using Windows Media Encoder (wmv video).
