NET experts,
Thank You in advance for your help.
I am 2mo old in the .NET world (A true NEWB) (otherwise known as network admin gone wild) so please bear with me as some of your code still seems magical.

I am running winXP SP2
.NET 2
VB Web developer 2005 Express
VB 2005 Express

Here is what I am trying to accomplish:
Play WMP videos with the ability to jump to File Markers.

Here is what I have done trying to accomplsh this task.
Droped the WMP control on my web form.
Set file markers in a WMV file using windows media file editor.
Loaded the file in WMP to test to make sure that I could go to File Markers. (successful)

On properties of player control I set the URL to my vid.
I also set CurrentMarker to 3. (I have 5 total markers in the WMV in question)
The video opens and plays, but starts from the begining.
I also tried the using CurrentPosition. same result.

Here is my code from the source window.

<aspnetvideo:windowsmedia id="WindowsMedia1" runat="server" height="309px" videourl="my.wmv"
width="340px" AutoPlay="False" FullScreen="false" WindowlessVideo="false" CurrentMarker="3"></aspnetvideo:windowsmedia>
</asp:DropDownList>

The markers will only work when the video is hosted on specialist streaming video hosting.

We have a better solution - ASPNetMedia.PlayList will be released in the next 1-2 weeks.

It will allow you to control the flow of a presentation - and change up the media on either client or server side.

Also - A full JavaScript API will be released for ASPNetVideo at the same time!

Jake, thanks for your reply. However, contrary to your reply I was able to get video working with file markers (on my notebook). As soon as I finish the development of my interface the videos will be hosted on a Win2K3 box which will be running streaming server.
