I use SDP multimedia to record streaming video from the internet, however when I play it back on any application inc win media player it stops after 5 mins. (It records in .asf ext) Please can anyone help?
WMV and ASF Files are extremely Prone to Corruption and errors because of the extremely High Compression but there is a way you can try to Fix them.... There is a Program called "ASF Tools" that can scan the File for errors and Fix errors in the File and even Make it so the File is Seekable.... You can Get the Program here: http://www.geocities.com/myasftools/?20056 Cheers
I would also say that the stream may be corrupt from the server, or you may have just got a bad download this one time. There are also many other recorders that you can use. SDP is a good one for Windows Media streams, but there are other good ones as well. Maybe just downloading it again with a different streaming media recorder would solve the problem. Much more information about streaming media recording at the link below. The FAQ is a great place to start.
