    Xbox One Media Player questions


    Hi, I have a couple of questions regarding the Media Player on the Xbox One.

    I use my Xbox One to stream a lot of stuff from a DLNA source, and it works great - as did my Xbox 360 before it, but the Xbox Ones media player has a few ... oddities which I need clarifying.

    Firstly, the 360 used to have a "resume" function when a video played via DLNA (same source as I'm using now) was stopped midway through (not paused, actually stopped and exited out of). The Ones media player seems to only play from the start, not to continue
    from the stopped point - am I missing something? Does it have this option?

    Secondly, I can't seem to get the Ones media player to only play a single file - once the current file finishes, it immediately and seamlessly plays the next file in the folder. Can you get it to only play one file at a time?

    Regards

    Richard

    :)

    Yes with the media player app it's possible to stream music and video from a computer or USB 1-3.0 storage devices.

    Old question luckily a ton of features have been added since the Xbox Ones release.

    How to connect XBOX ONE X to a home NAS?

    Hey Michael,

    Thanks for your response! If your NAS supports DLNA, the Xbox One will be able to play media using the

    "Media Player"     application. Simply open Media Player, allow it to detect the server on your network, browse your media, and play!

    I hope this information helps, thanks again!

    Media Player Unavailable?

    I am having the exact same issue. Uninstalled Media Player and now it's unavailable... Very frustrating. Why does Xbox One Media Player feel like a huge step back from Xbox 360 Media Player?
