Help with Multicast publishing point

Hi there

Can anyone help with the following two issues?

1. The Publishing Point is advertised via Multicast and the Webpage used for
the "Webcast" references the .NSC file. This works fine but the embedded
media takes up to 30 seconds to appear in the player, much of the time its
reports "Connecting to meda". What I can do to reduce this wait time. The
same link advertised in Unicast mode (.ASX) starts immediately.

2. The live video is on a continuous loop, the media runs for between 8 and
12 minutes, however what I would like to do is to a) display where we are in
the video so that someone opening the link will see that its nearly finished
and wait for to start again before watching, or to setup a schedule so that
it starts on the quarter hour only.

1) Sounds like a network issue.  Check WMP Statistics tab to see what's
going on (packet loss, etc.)
2) You could put the counter display in the video itself.  Otherwise you'll
need to play around with server-side playlists.
