Play Button Display/WMV Mime Type

Can't get the Play Button to display.

On my host control panel the mime type for Windows wmv is: video/x-ms-wmv
I entered it as {wmv=video/x-ms-wmv} in Allowed File Types and it still doesn't play. Is this the correct way to enter the mime type in Phoca Download? The format I used is not working.

How do I get the Play button to display? Under Options -> Display -> Play Settings, Display Play Button is set to Yes.

Thanks,

The official MIME Type Settings for Windows Media Services are listed here:

But I can't get wmv to work in Phoca Download.

Hi, these are download settings - to download a file, not to play a file.

With help of flow player you can play: mp3, mp4 and flv files only.
