Azure media player not playing uploaded video on MS Azure Media Services

Question

I'm trying to use Azure Media Services. For demo purpose I've uploaded a video directly on the portal then clicked to encode this uploaded video in 'H264 Smooth Streaming 720p' preset.
This scheduled a encoding job which generated another (off-course larger) file which I published to get the manifest file URL.

I can play this video on the portal itself but when I use the given URL I get the following error:

A network error caused the video download to fail part-way. Please check your network connection or try again later. (0x20200000)

I'm taking help from this Channel9 video.

Please help me on this.

Please add &format=smooth to your URL and it should work!

Otherwise, on the page check "Advanced Options" checkbox and select Smooth from the Format dropdown and click on "Update" button.
