How can I add music to an Xbox discord stream?

Please add media streaming and background music like on the 360, Oh and how do I get in on the beta for the new update?

Corrected when trying to stream music on my XBOX One from my PC using media player app, I do this because playlists are also playable, the music files are no longer found. Video files and picture files are still able to be streamed. I am wondering since
the add of music to onedrive and xbox music did they remove the ability to stream music with media player. on another note the media player on the One is awful compared the players on the 360.

Hello Pandafox11,



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We are more than glad to address your concern here.

When streaming on Discord from your Xbox, your friends can indeed watch your streams. However, there are a few important points to consider:

- Pairing Xbox Account: Sometimes, your friends may encounter a prompt asking them to pair their Xbox account. This doesn't mean that only people with an Xbox account can watch your streams. Instead, it's related to the setup process for streaming from your Xbox to Discord.

- Stream to Discord Feature: Discord has introduced a feature called "Stream to Discord", which allows you to stream your Xbox gameplay directly to Discord. This feature was initially available to Xbox Insiders and is now accessible to all Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One console users. Here's how it works:

- Connect Your Xbox Profile to Discord:

- If you haven't already connected your Xbox account to Discord, follow these steps:

- Open Discord on your desktop or mobile.

- Go to User Settings > Connections.

- Look for the Xbox logo and click it.

- Sign in with your Microsoft account.

- Once connected, you're all set up!

- Streaming Process:

- While connected to a Discord voice channel or call on your Xbox:

- Press the Xbox button on your controller.

- Navigate to the Parties & Chats tab.

- Select Discord.

- Choose the voice channel where you want to stream your Xbox gameplay.

- Click Stream your game.

- Adjust the resolution and framerate settings as desired.

- Finally, select Start Streaming.

- Bonding with Friends:

- Streaming your favorite games on Discord is a fantastic way to connect and bond with your friends, regardless of whether they have an Xbox account or not. Whether you're showing off character builds, sharing hidden areas, or demonstrating your competitive skills, Discord provides a virtual couch for friends to enjoy gaming together from anywhere in the world.

We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



Sincerely,

that article has no quote that the only way to play your music is through the xbox music streaming app, the writer never even states that xbox music is only the default music app, however, he clearly misleads the reader to believe you will not be able to
stream music you own without paying. honestly its some horrendous journalism.

-

even if ms isnt providing a music streaming app, it will only be a matter of time before one of the many ms approved metro or winp8 music streaming apps is ported to x1.

-

it should also be noted that the win8p xbox music app allows you to play your own music/mp3s, so id imagine it is only a matter of time before they add this feature to x1 xbox music app.

@Unreal, can you explain to me how to use Xbox Music for free using a phone or how any device can be plugged in to use music? If you actually do this.

I have a W8P with my music on it, I don't see a way to stream it. Also plugging In Said phone doesn't do anything either. There is NO specific Music player on the console besides the audio CD.
