Windows Media Services (9.0) not streaming some files
I'm trying to move my Windows Media Services over to a new server. I'm coming across a problem where some of my wmv files aren't playing. When I try to connect to the files I get an error saying "Windows Media Player cannot find the file."
Both are running on windows 2003 and Windows Media Services 9.0.
Is there anything that would let one wmv file work just fine but another one not work at all?

Also, I just tested this out on VLC and all the videos are playing fine. Another check I did was another internal server, if I used the internal IP these videos that weren't working worked fine, but with an external IP they wouldn't load.
Try testing one of the problem wmv files in gspot,
gspot is a codec analyaser and can tell you what the difference is between the succesful wmv and the failing. So you can first compare then hopefully see what the problem is, the thing is you are also dealing with a microsoft DRM file.

I used Gspot and both videos look the same.
