I have an ASP.NET website with a media player on its page to play a video file from a folder on the server. It downloads the entire video and then starts playing.

I want to use Streaming media service to play this video as it downloads.

For this I have downloaded Windows6.1-KB963697-x64.msu from the Microsoft site and installed it on my Windows server 2008 R2 (x-64). It was installed successfully. Then I used the Server Manager to add the Streaming Media Service to Roles. It has also been added successfully on the server.

Problem comes when I want to publish my site on this Streaming media service i.e. add a publish point with my webpage containing video file. I select the publishing of dynamic web page on the publishing wizard and write the of my web page for the media as give in the example on the publishing wizard (http://www.example.com/Pagename.aspx). This gives an error that server is not compatible with the services. The server authorities have claimed that there is nothing wrong with the server and the error comes because I have not used the correct procedure for using Streaming media service. They also confirm that all my steps till installation of Streaming Media Service to Role is OK.

I need help to publish the web page on the already installed Streaming media service.

Please help me by guiding how to make the publishing wizard a success.

Many thanks for your help
