I have:
- QuickTime Player 6.0.3
- RealPlayer 6.0.4
- Windows Media Player 7.1.2

None of these open .asf or .wmv videos. Is (are) there other(s)?

I have partitions with OS 9.0.4 and 9.1.

Smiley helped me on this, as i saw .asf to.
Asf can be played on Windows Media player, but you have to select it as an "open file" since it's a pathway to a streaming radio (online broadcasting).
So, once downloaded it, open Windows Media player.
Choose "open file", select the xxxx.asf file and than Windows Media Player will connect to a online broadcast (if it works well, and it might take a while.
Not sure on the .wmv thing, although i think i saw it.
Maybe others now smile.gif

.wmv is Windows Media Video. You should be able to play it from the windows media player.

Thanks Mrious be and Giantmike.

Mrious be's suggestion of opening Windows Media Player and selecting "open file" did it.
