  1. Can I stream media from XBOX ONE to other devices and TV's on my wired home network?


    Hello,

    The title pretty much says it all. I want to be able to hook up an external HDD and stream media files from my XBOX ONE to the devices and TVs that I have on my home network. I was thinking about buying a dedicated HTPC, but all I really do is stream movies
    to the TV's in the house. So, if I can do this I will not have to build one. Also, if this is possible, will I be able to do this if the XBOX ONE is off, or in stand by mode?

    Thank you in advance for your replies.

    :)

    Streaming Media from my PC to my Xbox One

    I am unable to stream media from my PC (Windows 8) to my new Xbox One. Previously, I could stream media from this PC to my Xbox 360. All I needed to do was right click the media (in this case an MP4) and then select "Play to Xbox 360". The Xbox One is definitely
    on the network and I can do some control of the device using the Windows 8 Xbox One SmartGlass app.

    On the Xbox 360, this was done pretty much according to this forum article:

    Streaming Media from your PC to your Xbox 360

    Anyone have an idea why I can't stream media to the Xbox One?

    Thanks!

  3. Can't stream media to my Xbox One

    Earlier today I streamed an album to my Xbox One, and now every time I attempt to stream something to my Xbox I get the "Failed to retrieve media information from media server" message. Nothing will stream to it now, as I get the same error message each
    time. This impacts Music and movies. In addition, yesterday I found out that media will only play once before no longer working streaming.

    I have restarted Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service and UPnP Device Host, and there has been no change.

    Both Computer and Xbox One are wired.

    Xbox 360 System Music/Video Player

    Check that you allow streaming to all devices/Xboxes from Windows Media Player. I have seen cases where Windows treats the same Xbox as two different Xboxes depending on how it is connected to your network. It's possible you have streaming enabled to the
    Xbox when it is hard-wired to the network, but that you have a separate entry in Windows that is disabled when the Xbox is connected wirelessly.



    You should specifically check your list of allowed devices. Here's a link that can show you how to set this all up and enable/disable streaming from Windows 7.

    Game streaming resolution when TV is off or on different input

    Here's some additional details for Microsoft. I am using two xbox ones and a windows 10 pc:

    - an original model xbox one connected to a 1080p tv and a wireless AC network connection

    - an xbox one S connected to a 4K tv and wired networking

    - windows 10 pc with a 1080p monitor and wired networking

    Game streaming works perfectly to the original model xbox one with a wireless connection. From my windows 10 PC I can turn on the console, start streaming, and the resolution is great.

    With the xbox one S though, even though I have a wired network connection to both the PC and that xbox, I will only be able to stream in 640x480 resolution unless I turn on the TV before I try to stream. I can also report that if I do turn on the TV first
    and begin streaming in 1080p, I can then turn off the TV without affecting my 1080p streaming until I turn the xbox off.

    This appears to be a bug for our particular configuration, and it's not getting any attention from Microsoft because their streaming test cases are passing. It could be a difference of original model xbox vs. xbox one S, but I'm expecting it has something
    to do with the 4K display settings on the xbox, HDCP, and/or trying to stream to a lower resolution of 1080p.

    What's is your ONE issue with your ONE console that you wish could Microsoft fix / improve ?

    For me make it a full media hub with decent codec support, I want it to access my WD 4TB MyCloud & stream whatever I want from it or any other networked Video/Audio device in my house to a room with an Xbox One in.

    I can pick up cheap boxes to do this but I want my new all in one Xbox One media hub/games machine to do this as standard, without having to push it from another device first.

    Xbox One and Media Center

    Media Center is dead. Wasn't that great anyway. I used it from 2009-2013 and it was nothing but trouble - even on a cat5 wired home network. The Xbox One tv integration has so far been a much more reliable, attractive and accessible solution for my family.

    Media Player - Video stops playing over DLNA - Error 0xc00d11cd (0x8000ffff)

    Having the same probleme with Xbox One S (500 GB) and Media Player when I am trying to watch a TV-Stream provided by DVBLink Streaming Service (DVBLogic) in my local network. Any other device in my local network has no problem (Windows 7 Desktop, Windows
    10 Desktop, Windows 10 Tablet (all on Anniversary Update)). Even PS3/PS4 and Mobile Phone can connect to the DLNA Stream - only the new Xbox One S fails to do so. Same Error code 0xc00d11cd (0x8000ffff). Help appreciated!
