To configure Windows Media Encoder to create an ASF stream

Open Windows Media Encoder. Create a Windows Media Encoder configuration for your presentation, and save the configuration as an .asd file. There are three different configuration methods you can use:
- QuickStart
- Template with I/O Options
- Custom
Whichever configuration method you choose, it must support script commands. You can select a template stream format that supports script commands, or you can use a custom configuration with script commands. If script commands are not enabled, the script commands that Microsoft PowerPoint sends when you switch presentation slides are not included in the ASF stream, and images of the slides do not appear on the user's screen.
On the computer running Windows Media Encoder, ready the video camera and microphone to be used to record the presentation. Test the video camera to ensure a signal is delivered to the video card on Windows Media Encoder. Also, test the microphone to make sure it delivers a signal to the sound card.
If you did not select Start new Windows Media Encoder when you created your .nse file, open and start the configuration (.asd) file you created.

Note

Windows Media Encoder starts delivering the video to the Windows Media server, but the Windows Media server cannot stream the video to users until a Windows Media program is started.
