SYMPTOMS
When you open a PD-DRM protected media file, Microsoft Windows Media Player in Microsoft Windows CE .NET (Ceplayer.exe) may not be able to use the license that is embedded in the media file. This problem occurs if the media file also contains an Extended Encryption object. In this case, Ceplayer.exe tries to retrieve a license from the server but cannot if the device is not connected to the network.
