cast movie to xbox 360

If you are talking of movies you have purchased from the Films & TV app, then you do not need to do anything, as the Xbox 360 and Windows 10 have their own Films & TV app, just log in on the device you want to watch those movies, and then launch the app.
Your movies should show.

If you have movies that you have purchased elsewhere and using the app to watch them. You only need to turn on the play to option on the xbox 360, then when you start the app on Windows 10, start a movie, then in the bottom corner of the film there will
three dots. Select it, and choose cast to device. The Xbox 360 should show up. select it, and it should play on your console.

Hi Charles you can watch movies with the Microsoft Movies and TV app on your device. Also you can stream media by casting it to a device.

Hi again. I wish you could explain to me how to do this. My TV displays our cable on HDMI1. We have our Google Chromecast device connected to HDMI2. When we want to stream content from our phones or laptops, we switch the TV to HDMI2, and the streaming apps connect automatically. When I try to stream this Microsoft movie (Sorcerer, 1977) to the Chromecast on HDMI2, it says it can't connect. Likewise, just trying to cast it to the TV via HDMI1 does not connect, either. The only other ports available are InputAV1 and InputComponent, neither of which have a device connected, but the movie will not connect or cast to either of those. Please help me to be able to cast this movie from my Surface laptop to my Chromecast (in HDMI2 port on Samsung Smart TV). Also, is there any way I can access the movie on my Samsung S21 smart phone?

The cast of S.W.A.T. Very funny!!!! I recommend SWAT 2 Much better movie

Well, I apparently can't edit my post anymore, so I have to comment to amend/add something:

I actually didn't cast this to my Xbox before without issue. What I did - and what I am doing now - is hooking up an external HD to the Xbox with the file on it. The Xbox then uses Media Player, rather than Movies & TV, to play the video - and it works
perfectly. Audio is fine, and the picture looks perfect.

So, yeah. It's either the process of casting from Windows to Xbox, or the new and totally unnecessary Movies & TV app, that is messing up the display while attempting to cast the video from PC to Xbox.
