Wrong User Agent in HTTP GET 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago

Karma: 0

I have used the below registry details to set the HTTP User Agent.

To Set HTTP User Agent:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent
(Default) = Mozilla/4.0
Desc = Default (Windows CE)
UA-Language = JavaScript
Platform = Windows CE
Version = MSIE 6.0
Compatible = compatible

The User Agent is working fine for normal browsing. I have created a streaming solution over RTSP using DShow concept. So when WMP loading, WMP sends (i guess) the HTTP GET to the server. That time the User Agent string is not the same as above. It is different than I set (above).

Please advice me if I am doing somthing wrong or I missed anything in the Setting.

The User Agent you set above is exclusive for Pocket Internet Explorer! WMP should have its own method of calling the server which is most probably hard-coded! Regards, Carty..

Hi Carty Is there any registry entry for WMP to configure the UA? Or Please suggest me where can I get more info regarding WMP settings. This info will be very helpful.

I don't think its based on registry keys. Anyway, why do you need it? Regards, Carty..

Some servers validating the client based on the UA. Because of this, I am not authenticated to get the access to those files.
