Thanks prakashd. I have no idea what was wrong. I just shut everything down for a day. Today tried the same url with Manifest at the end, and it worked :)

I hope I was not doing some spelling mistake.

Can you try and request the manifest directly i.e give the url http://mahince/path/Bear.ism/Manifest from browser and see if that succeeds?

Also you can run fillder or netmon and see what requests are failing.

I am sure IIS is setup correctly because I was able to run MS big bunny demo

And I know my media path is right on the client because if I change path to a wmv file, it works.

new Uri("http://localhost/Nile.Net/Media/Bear/Bear.wmv");

I tried that, but it did not work either. I got the exact same error message.

I actually tried all of these

new Uri("http://localhost/Nile.Net/Media/Bear/Bear.ism/Manifest");

new Uri(http://localhost/Nile.Net/Media/Bear/Bear.ism)

new Uri("/Bear/Bear.ism/Manifest")

Just change the url to Bear.ism/Manifest ... i.e

pi.MediaUrl = new Uri(http://localhost/Nile.Net/Media/Bear/Bear.ism/Manifest);

For smooth stremaing the url should point to the manifest file.

Using Encoder's template for IIS Smooth Streaming

I am using encoder's template as explained by tim in this blog.

http://timheuer.com/blog/archive/2008/11/03/use-expression-encoder-templates-in-silverlight-application.aspx

This is how I set the source.

this.myMediaPlayer.Playlist.Clear();

PlaylistItem pi = new PlaylistItem();

pi.MediaUrl = new Uri("http://localhost/Nile.Net/Media/Bear/Bear.ism");

this.myMediaPlayer.Playlist.Add(pi);

this.myMediaPlayer.Play();

I does not play video. When I click stop button and click play again, it gives error message requires hosted on iis 7 and smooth streaming headers installed.

I am running Vista/IIS7 and have installed smooth streaming. I can see the options in IIS Manager. Any ideas?
