Every time I try to construct a graph (with MS Graphedit, via 'Render URL' option) with online URL (for example http://images.apple.com/movies/sony_pictures/thepursuitofhappyness/thepursuitofhappyness_h.320.mov) I get the following error:
Could not construct a graph from this file.
[..]
The file format is invalid. (Return code: 0x8004022f)
The stream plays just fine in MPC - meaning I have the right splitters and codecs present. Also, when I do 'Connect to Remote Graph' while the MPC plays the file I get a graph created. When I save it, close the MPC and try to reopen just created graph file in Graphedit I get the error again. I thought that if Graphedit saved the graph I could reopen it anytime and render a given file, no?
Finally, if I want to create a graph "by hand" and use online URL as the source - which filter should I use as the source? I tried 'File Source (Netshow URL)' and 'File Source (URL)' but in both cases I'm asked to point to a local file and not url address. What is the trick here?
BTW, same happens with url pointing to asx or wmv files, so it's not like .mov issue only.
