It's not streaming, it's simply playing the file over SMB networking, which uses ports 137-139.

so it does not use port 445?
also, i did a trace with Etherreal and it appears it use both 445(SMB port) and 36631(where the video data is coming from)
it like this:
SMB - next packat length
SMB - Ack
TCP(36631) data
TCP(36631) Confirm
--------Repeat pattern---------
what i really want to know is when i watch a video from a Pocket PC does it also use port 445 and 36631?

its will be the Betaplayer (now know as TCPMP player), watching a avi file
137,139,445 via SMB/NetBIOS.
If your streaming video then the port depends on the streaming server application. How is the pocket PC connected to the server?
