Now I have an wmv file that won't play.
The file is accessible via DLNA and I can play other files from that DLNA server (Universal Media Server). And there is no transcoding being done in the process.
MediaInfo from my file:

My player's specs are on my signature.
Anyway, only a damn fool or blatant ignorant would encode a file with Windows Media...
