JSI Tip 5353. Windows Media Play does NOT play audio files from a HTTP page?
May 23, 2002
When you attempt to play audio Windows Media content (.wax, .wma) from a Web server via HTTP, Windows Media Player generates:
The network connection has failed. (Error ID = 0xC00D0029).
NOTE: The file may continue to download into the browser cache, but it can NOT be played.
Some third-party multimedia player has assumed ownership of the file extension and may have altered registry value data.
To resolve the problem, Copy / Paste the following into a FixWMP.reg file and Merge it with your registry:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMIMEDatabaseContent Typeaudio/x-ms-wax]
"Extension"=".wax"
"CLSID"="{cd3afa83-b84f-48f0-9393-7edc34128127}"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTMIMEDatabaseContent Typeaudio/x-ms-wma]
"Extension"=".wma"
"CLSID"="{cd3afa84-b84f-48f0-9393-7edc34128127}"
