  1. Media player app stoped working


    Hi, I downloaded the recommended media player app from the store and everytime I watch any movie, it will stop working after about 20 to 30mins showing an error code and it tells me to close and restart the app.

    I am streaming content from an external HDD. Movies plays on other devices with no issues. What could be the problem?

    :)

    This set of error codes is a reported exception fault. In your case, it is likely due to a corrupted data stream from your external HDD to the console. Did this start happening after the recent Xbox update? Also what external HDD due you have.

    In working with this error set recently, the direction I have been told to pass on is to make sure the cache has been cleared on the console via a hard reset (hold the power button in for 10s, unplug for 10s) and work with the external HDD manufacturer (in
    almost all cases, Seagate). Other systems and apps use different buffering schemes and may not exhibit the problem.

    tPlease also bear in mind that not all media types can be streamed on the console. Even though some content may work for a bit it could cause the app to crash after a while.

    Does this happen with content purchased online from the Movie/TV app?

    Like Wishcatcher asked, what is the exact error code so we can diagnose better

    Also, try uninstalling the app and re-install it so see if that solves the problem

    Hi, understood. But these are basic media types which I would presume they should be supported by the Xbox. These play fine on the windows PC.

    From what I gathered, if the movies can play on the PC, they should play on the Xbox?

    Or perhaps, your team can recommend another media player app that I could use?

    FYI, i also tried VLC player, but it was worst.

    I noticed sometimes with my Media apps that if there is a sudden drop in my internet service then I get an error code even if I am streaming from an external HDD.
