Serving Custom ASX and HTML Files

VBrick WM appliances create and serve built-in .asx files that are used to launch streams.
VBrick appliances can also serve custom .html or .asx files that you create and store in Flash
memory on the VBrick's C: drive. For example, you may want to use the VBrick as a web
server to launch custom .html or .asx files. Custom .asx files are typically used for playlists;
custom .html files are useful for web pages that have an embedded media player. To support
this functionality, the appliance recognizes the following special file names. These special files
can be stored in Flash memory at
customized and served as necessary.
Custom1.asx
Custom2.asx
Custom3.asx
Custom4.asx
Custom5.asx

recognized and will not be served. Note that .asx files are text files that manage the streaming
of .asf files. They are very small (less than 1K) because they contain instructions and no data.
When a you click a link to an .asx file, the browser downloads it to the browser cache,
launches the Windows Media Player, and then starts streaming the file. When the Player
interprets the .asx file, it accesses the streaming media specified in the .asx file. The following
snippet shows typical content inside an .asx file:
