NS_E_INVALID_PUSH_PUBLISHING_POINT
Mechanism and scope
This result (0xC00D151B) marks the push target is absent, wrong type or otherwise unsuitable for encoder push. It belongs to the server-side control path, not to a generic local media-player failure.
A server distribution path connects a data source, parser, media header and one or more data sinks; push publication adds an encoder-to-server control path, while client delivery uses a separate protocol and connection state. In the trace, trace input and output independently: source selection, parsing/header creation and sink selection are separate checkpoints.
Reading the second result
| Controlled comparison | Use a known-good object of the same type and vary only the precondition described as “the push target is absent, wrong type or otherwise unsuitable for encoder push”. |
A controlled correction
- Capture
0xC00D151B, the symbolic name, the exact API/administrative action and the first failure timestamp. - Preserve server name, publishing-point name, point type, push data source configuration, ACL and current owner connection.
- Perform one isolated experiment: verify the target through the server object model and create/configure a true push broadcast point before reconnecting the encoder.
Comparison with adjacent states
Primary distinction: duplicate push name is creation-time collision; invalid push point rejects the selected target.
| Nearby result | Different condition |
|---|---|
NS_E_CRITICAL_ERROR | the Windows Media server or publishing point is in a critical error state that blocks further operations. |
NS_E_INVALID_PUSH_TEMPLATE | the named template cannot supply valid settings for a push publishing point. |
NS_E_NO_NEW_CONNECTIONS | the server currently refuses additional client connections. |
Changes that do not establish the cause
- testing only the public playback URL; encoder push uses a different direction and authorization path.
- Avoid changing the publishing point, protocol, content and plug-in set in one test; such a test cannot show which precondition cleared the code.
