 * I’m hosting my own blog at [http://galaktican.no-ip.org/dudemanblog](http://galaktican.no-ip.org/dudemanblog)
   
   My issue is with playing videos using Silverlight. I’ve downloaded and installed
   the MinoPlayer from [http://www.silverlight-blog.it/ontheroad/videoplayer/minoplayer_ver1_2.html](http://www.silverlight-blog.it/ontheroad/videoplayer/minoplayer_ver1_2.html).
   I have a Windows Server 2008 Virtual Machine running the Streaming Media Services.
   You can play this video in Windows Media player by opening a URL to mms://galaktican.
   no-ip.org/test. In Windows Media Services I have changed the Control protocal–
   WMS HTTP Server Control Protocal to use port 8888 and I am forwarding port 8888
   to my Server 2008 ip.
 * The video on my blog plays fine within my network, even on a linux box. But, 
   outside of my network the video will not play. I’m by no means an expert at any
   of this. I know just enough to get myself in trouble. But, I can follow instructions.
   Any assistance would be greatly appreacated.
 * Here is the code I’m plugging into my post…
