Microsoft has issued a new knowledge base advisory in which the software company announces the availability of a fix for a "Slight Delay When Windows Media Player 9 Series Switches Files Streamed from a Windows Media Services 9 Series Server". The symptoms you may experience are: When you stream files from a Windows Media Services 9 Series server, you may notice a delay of five or six seconds when you switch between files.
This problem occurs because of the way the Windows Media Player 9 Series server submits the client rendering log to the Windows Media Services 9 Series server. When the server is set up to accept client rendering logs, an internal error may be incorrectly reported on the client when the client waits for a response from the server. If this behavior occurs, the client times out after a default period and then opens the next file. In this case, the server receives the correct log from the client. This patch updates file Wmnetmgr.dll to version 9.0.0.3070. Download update for Windows 2000 / XP / Server 2003 Download update for Windows ME View Knowledge Base article
