Can’t stream Apps

Streaming apps can disable streaming due to licensing restrictions (otherwise you could buy a movie, and let millions of people see the movie for free, whereas in game streaming, people watch your work as you play, not the copyrighted work of a film maker
which you can't make your own).

If you circumvent that and stream copyrighted movies, you are breaking copyright laws in most countries, and you might face legal charges, if the movie studio finds out you streamed their movie.

If it's a non-copyrighted movie, or a movie you made yourself and hold the rights to, you can still try to stream the movie by using capture hardware and your PC.

Simply connect your console to your PC's capture hardware, and stream through that.

Directly with the console itself it's not possible.

As said it's to do with copyright law , that's how you can't stream a app 👍

Certain apps and even games have this function to prevent licensing issues. What ever movie or so on you want to broadcast you nor xbox owns the license to so they dont allow most movies and music apps to be broadcasted from twitch or mixer. This also
goes for games that involve music.

Hi Nathan,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

1. What is the exact error code or error message you have received while trying to stream?
   
2. Which version of Windows is running on your device?
