I'm using Vidblasterx on a windows 7 machine. Vidblaster's VVD pumps a stream into the WME, looks great, I see the input/output...now there is another PC on the network that I wish to grab the output via WMP, open URL option. WME is setup for the pull. I can ping each machine in both directions successfully but yet the pull bombs. Was thinking maybe the Windows Media service needs to be started, but not sure what it is called in 7. I see a Windows Media Player Network Sharing service...could that be it? Any ideas appreciated...
