    Media content via USB


    Hi all , i am unable to view media files on an HDD connected to xbox one x via USB. I have tried different 1 Tb HDD’s and different USB ports. (Drive formatted as NTFS).

    the Films & TV and VLC apps do not see any media content

    USB sticks work ok.

    any ideas ? Does the HDD need to be in a certain structure ?

    thanks, K

    :)

    xbox one not able to stream video off of my Windows based pc!?

    Maybe I'm reading something wrong at your link, but I see this...

    "What are the different ways to play audio, photo and video content on Media Player?"

    ANSWER: "You can play media from a USB 1.0, 2.0 or 3.0 removable drive."

    So no mention of streaming directly from your PC.

    "Is there third-party software that I can use to stream media content from my PC to Media Player?"

    ANSWER: "The Xbox One team tests extensively to ensure that Xbox will work well with Windows Media Player software. If you decide to use third-party software, contact that software’s manufacturer for support."

    Why would you need a third party to stream content if Media Player had that ability? Looks to me like X1 can only play content via USB or other removable device unless a non supported third party work around is used to stream content to Media Player. Big
    step back from the 360. Don't know why they just didn't make it work with "Media Center" like on the 360.

    Playing a second video MP4 in a folder results in crash - 0x00d11cd (0x80070006) - XBox Series X

    No, I play the videos on an XBox Series X with the media player. The external SDD is connected via USB to the front USB port. There is no PC involved.

    It can be played as an extended media device playable via USB. Can't transfer the files from it though.
