I have an issue I've been able to replicate on Windows 7 & 8 both in the Main Demo application and a custom application. If I launch a network stream and take the port from the streaming URL. I get these results:
“Telnet localhost 1143” receives a response on the local host
Attaching to the stream via Windows Media Player on the local host also works.
“Telnet 192.168.0.250 1143” from the local machine fails (250 being the LAN IP)
“Telnet 192.168.0.250 1143” from a remote machine fails (same network segment).
Attaching to the stream from a remote workstation fails.

The Windows firewall is off in all cases. It looks like the network stream is not actually binding to the external IP address. Has anyone else seen this behavior or have a solution?

Hello,
I have an issue a little diffferent: On a system which runs windows 7 Home Premium I want to send a direct streaming from my webcam. When I activate the streaming I'm able to see the preview, but If I check the port used to stream using "Command prompt/Netstat -a" it isn't opened! Consequently the stream is not accessible. I've also tried to disable windows firewall, but the result is always the same. Thanks in advance to all!

I think you must correctly configure your router and so on. That's a common problem.

I'm having the same problem. Has this problem resolved? I set it up with static IP on all the computers connected to a network switch. Same problem.
