How do i enable media sharing on my windows 7




















It is as if the OS on the laptop completely ignores these settings. I am convinced that is where the problem lays that allows one machine's media to be shared and makes another's unshareable despite identical settings in Settings, Control Panel and folder Properties Security and Sharing tabs.

Run the DISM and sfc checks on the laptop. I have the same question 3. Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Hello wmcole, Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

To stream video to another computer on your home network they will all need to be running Windows 7 with Windows Media Player In our example we will stream video from a computer running Windows 7 Ultimate bit to another machine running Windows 7 Home Premium bit which are part of the same Homegroup.

Type media streaming into the search box in the Start menu and select Media streaming options. Now select your media streaming options. Choose a name for the media library, and make sure all the computers on your network you want to have access are allowed. If both computers are part of a Homegroup, everything is shared by default anyway, but you might want to double check.

Or you might want to block certain computers from the streaming options. You can also choose some custom settings if you want. For instance, maybe you want certain computers to only have access to music or certain files with a particular rating.

For this demonstration we are opening everything up, but if you want to control what other users access, keep these settings in mind. Now open up Windows Media Player and in Library view click on Stream and check Automatically allow devices to play my media. To be able to play content on one machine over to another we need to enable Allow remote control of my Player.

This makes it so your computer is a remote control of sorts. Because we are making everything wide open to all computers, we need to enable the above settings on both computers. If you have multiple computers on your network you can set them all up to share their libraries too.

Now comes the cool part…playing video or music from the library of one machine to another machine. Make sure the machine you want to play the media to has WMP up and running. Right-click a media file and select Play to from the context menu and select the machine to play it to.

In this example we only have one other machine to choose from, and playing an X-files episode from the library in WMP. From here you can control the playback and volume.
