I am trying to use the Media Module and point it to a provider that is hosting my streaming video.  The URL that they gave me is case sensitive.  It contains an audioId that points to the video that I was to access.  If the audioId is entered in lower case, it doesn't work.  It will only work in upper case.

When I look at the source behind my DNN page with the Media Module, it changes the entire URL to lowercase thus causing the stream to not be found.  Is this a function of the Media Module or is it a core DNN feature.  While the URL isn't really case sensitive (nor should it ever be), this streaming provider has made the audioId (one of the querystring parameters) case sensitive.

Any suggestions other than to find a new streaming video provider?

Thanks

I figured out that I could manually encode the url in the audioID parameter of the querystring so that the lowercase issue didn't matter.  For future reference, in order to have the provider see the uppercase characters, I changed the url from:

audioId=ABCD1234

to

audioId=%41%42%43%441234

with the (%41%42%43%44) section being the encoded hex equivalent of ABCD.

Hope that helps someone in the future.
