SYMPTOMS
After you encode a video stream to an auto-start broadcast publishing point, a virtual directory for delivering live stream media, the Windows Media Player 9 codec may not play back the video stream in broadcast quality.



CAUSE
This problem may occur if the codec intermittently outputs the video stream with a less than broadcast-quality frame rate. For example, the codec that uncompresses the video stream may output a frame every two seconds which causes a choppy appearance to the video stream.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
