Your workaround suggests that this should be possible, so I am hoping that someone here can direct me to a thread or article that discusses this. I could not find anything addressing this through Windows Mobile website or the Windows Media site.
Thanks

I'm not sure were you can go to read up on the matter, but as my experience goes, CTC is right. To start off with you need to have mms:// and then were your file is located in the address of the video file. But the main thing is the way you Encode your video. It has to be encoded as a streaming video and not just a standard encode for Pocket Pc for example that Windows media Encoder does. For the difference would be the whole video would have to be downloaded before it starts to play in WMP if its not in a streaming format. So you also might want to look into that also.
