Testing ASF streams

After configuring and starting Windows Media Encoder, it is a good idea to test it before providing content to users.

To test the encoder, use Microsoft Windows Media Player to receive the ASF stream from both Windows Media Encoder and the Windows Media server.

The stream originating from Windows Media Encoder is not a multicast stream, so do not use more than fifteen clients to test the encoder.
