Warning This article contains information about editing the namespace. Before you edit the namespace, verify that you have a backup copy that you can restore if a problem occurs. If you edit the namespace incorrectly, you can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall any product that uses the namespace. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems that result if you incorrectly edit the namespace can be solved. Edit the namespace at your own risk.



SYMPTOMS
On a Microsoft Windows Media Services 9 Series server, you may receive the following error message for a multicast-enabled broadcast publishing point:

ERROR 0xC00D0033: &quot;No stream format information was found. The previous announcement may be stale. Please reannounce before starting the publishing point.&quot;

You receive this error message even after you apply the hotfix that is described in the following Microsoft Knowledge Base article:

827561 FIX: You may have to reannounce the station on a Windows Media Services 9 Series multicast



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the following events occur at the same time:
 * One piece of content in a server-side playlist is transitioning to another piece of content.
 * The source of one of the pieces of content becomes unavailable.

In this case, it may be difficult for the server to track the current stream state.

MORE INFORMATION
If the problem still occurs after you apply this hotfix, you can use an additional namespace value. To set this namespace value, follow these steps:

Notes
 * Under ordinary server conditions, you do not have to use this namespace value.
 * These steps set the value to use a 30-second delay for shutting down the media parser.
 * A value of 0x7530 is 30 seconds.

 Stop the Windows Media Services service. To do this, run the following command at a command prompt:

net stop wmserver

 In a text editor such as Notepad, open the ServerNamespace.xml file. This file is located in the following folder:

%SystemRoot%\System32\Windows Media\Server

 Under the Other node, locate the end of the Client Upgrade subnode. After the Client Upgrade subnode, add a new node that is named ASFMediaParser.  Under the ASFMediaParser node, add a value for the DelayParserShutdownInMSecs value. This value is the time in milliseconds to delay the shutdown of the ASF media parser. For example, add the following line of code to the ServerNamespace.xml file: <node name=&quot;DelayParserShutdownInMSecs&quot; opcode=&quot;create&quot; type=&quot;int32&quot; value=&quot;0x7530&quot; /> </li> Save and then close the ServerNamespace.xml file.</li> Start the Windows Media Services service. To do this, run the following command at a command prompt:

net start wmserver

</li></ol>

For example, you may add code that resembles the following code example to the ServerNamespace.xml file: <node name=&quot;Other&quot; opcode=&quot;create&quot; > <node name=&quot;Client Upgrade&quot; opcode=&quot;create&quot; > ...

<node name=&quot;ASFMediaParser&quot; opcode=&quot;create&quot; > <node name=&quot;DelayParserShutdownInMSecs&quot; opcode=&quot;create&quot; type=&quot;int32&quot; value=&quot;0x7530&quot; />
