But before we go to the fixes, let’s take a brief look at why these issues show up in the first place. WMV issues can be fixed with a few simple steps that are detailed in this post.

#WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER UPDATE 8.1 INSTALL#

If you encounter such issues, we can assure you that there’s no need to install another media player. You may encounter stuttering, lagging, or slow playback of video files on WMP, and it may be quite inconvenient if you don’t have a backup media player installed. But sometimes, a simple media player like this might cause a few issues when playing video files. For people who only seek to play video and audio files (without much customization to audio or video playback), this should be sufficient. It has a simple interface that most users find easy to use. The Windows Media Player (WMP) supports native display resolutions and is updated fairly regularly along with Windows updates.

Among other applications is a media player called the Windows Media Player, which you can use to play video and audio files, such as MP4, MOV, MP3, etc. The Windows operating system comes equipped with a lot of built-in tools and applications to make the user experience more satisfactory and enjoyable.

Our book is available now! Find out how to use Windows 10 with iTunes, Google Music, Groove, Netflix, DLNA and media servers. Please let me know if you find any other changes and I will update the table.Ĭoming soon Garry Whittaker and I have a new book on Windows 10 Entertainment app where we look in-depth at Windows 10 media apps, streaming and more. Some of the features have been renamed, Play To becomes Cast To and Charms have been replaced with buttons in the apps. So upgrading to Windows 10 doesn’t mean you lose any functionality but you do have to fall back to using Windows Media Player, and there is no way of streaming Groove Music pass content from any of the apps. So in 2015 with the latest version of Windows you are still using Windows Media Player to handle media streaming! With Cast To you can stream music or videos to other DLNA devices on your network via File Explorer. Windows Media Player is also the app that File Explorer users when you right click on a media file and select Cast To (Play To on Windows 8.1). In fact Windows Media Player can be used as a streamer and receiver plus you can also browse DLNA media libraries on your home network, something you can’t do from the other apps. When it comes to be receiving content from other PCs and DLNA devices neither Groove Music (Xbox Music on Windows 8.1) nor Movies & TV (Xbox Video on Windows 8.1) can work as a DLNA player but you do have the old faithful Windows Media Player which you can use if you have “Allow remote control of my Player” switched on. You could also use Screen Sharing (Miracast) but that is something for another post.

This is the same functionality as the Windows 8.1 Xbox Video using the Devices charm. It only seems to work with personal videos and not videos from purchased from the store. There is a Cast To Device button in the now playing screen that you can use to stream videos from Windows 10 to a DLNA video player like an Xbox One, Smart TV or another PC. The new Movies & TV app does have media streaming features built in. With Windows 8.1 you could use the device charm to play your personal music collection on a DLNA devices like Sonos, Smart TVs and other PCs (it wouldn’t stream music from the store or a music pass).

The main change is the removal of DLNA features from the Groove Music app (which was called Xbox Music on Windows 8.1). With Windows 10 Microsoft have made changes to media streaming DLNA/UPnP features of Windows and not all of them for the better. #DLNA, #Play To, #Windows 10, #Windows 8.1
