Stream Movies Through External Drive with June Update?

Hi,

With the new June update that allows attaching an external through USB 3.0, will we be able to access movies/music on external drives through the Xbox One dashboard?

Even better would be if we could just USB straight to a PC tower and access the files from there, but at the least would I be able to transfer it from PC > HD > One so I don't have to switch imputs to allow streaming. Currently I have a tower hooked up to my
tv for all my digital media/internets, but would like to have the xbox One everything together.

Thanks!

:)

 

XBox One Media Player App will not pull movie album artwork through DLNA

Has anyone found a resolution besides using PLEX to stream their collected movies through DLNA and have the XBox one pull the metadata?

Info:

I use a GoFlex Seagate Home 2TB to stream my media from. Artwork is included in my files as well as other information such as author, actors, year, etc.

I have an external drive with the same movies on it and when the external is plugged through USB to the XBox, the media player app will show the movie cover, but the NAS through DLNA still does not.

Any help or recommendations would be great, Microsoft told me that metadata cannot be provided through NAS and DLNA.

 

Can XBox one search for Media Servers?

On my PS3 I used to be able to access my external drive that was attached to my router and stream music and movies that were saved on the hard drive (on the PS3). Am I able to do the same with XBox One?

 

The June update only allows the storage of game files on the external storage right now. It's been said that they're still looking at supporting other media types in the future, but it's not present in the June update.
