Windows 7 Media Sharing - DLNA TV - "Jerky" Video?
Sep 7, 2012
I have a Windows 7 starter netbook and have recently purchased a Panasonic DLNA enabled TV.I've put the TV into 'media server' mode, and enabled Media Streaming in WMP12.Using the TV remote control, I can now play music from the PCs library and look at pictures on the PC. But when I play video (esp HD video - AVCHD light 720p) the playback is very jerky with broken up sound.The videos do play OK on the PC itself in GOM media player.The TV plays BBC iPlayer HD programs fine.So the questions are: 1. How do I investigate whats causing the jerky video on the TV and is there anything to 'tweak' to get smoother playback.2. When you enable Media sharing does the PC use Media Player (WMP12) to do the service or is it Windows 7 itself? i.e. can I use GOM to 'serve' the video to the TV?TV - TX-L37DT30Netbook - Atom N455, 2G ramThe TV is connected to my router via power cable ethernet adapters.The Netbook is connecting wirelessly on an 'n' link at 65.0Mbps, 'Excellent' signal strength

Is there a way to get the DLNA server in Windows to only allow select videos to show up on DLNA devices?My problem is this; I have thousands of vacation videos that I do not want on the DLNA network - I just would like a few movies and old TV shows. How do I filter out my vacation videos?

I bought Windows 7 mainly for Media Centre, as my desktop PC has been my TV, DVD player, MP3 player etc for the last few years. I was running XP and upgraded last weekend to Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit.
I noticed first that the TV playback in WMC was skipping frames and very jerky, but then I realised that this was only in full screen. When I play it in a smaller window it is fine, then when I go fullscreen it is fine for around 20 secs, then a flicker happens and the problem starts again. If I change the channel, again it will be fine for some seconds, then same thing again.
I have noticed now tonight that when I playback movie files in Media centre there is the jerky frame skipping, but in Media player it is fine?????!!!! Also alot of times that I play either TV or Video files in WMC the screen is just full of lines and I have to close it down and reopen, sometimes several times in a row.
On top of this I've now realised that when I was watching online TV (Flashforward on Channel 5) the frame skipping is there too (Explorer 8).
Could this be to do with the onboard graphics? I thought 64MB was fine for windows 7.
Please help before I have some sort of fit from watching this jerky TV!!

When I play audio or video files located on my NAS (Q-NAP DS-210) in Mediaplayer (on my mediacenter) and streams the media over DLNA (Twonky) the audio / video stutters annoyingly.My Mediacenter pc is running windows 7 64 bit Professional edition. It is connected to my Q-Nap DS210 NAS server through a 1Gb ethernet network. If i play the same audio / video files through a mapped network share i either mediaplayer or mediacenter everything works fine

On my machine, in Network & Sharing Centre > Advanced Sharing Settings, media sharing is disabled.The 'Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service' is also disabled.However, when a Vista machine was on my network, a pop-up appeared, saying "Windows Media Player found: MY-PC" (where MY-PC is the name of my machine).

I've tried the "EnableRemoteContentSharing" registry edit in both versions 11 and 12 of WMP, and it only seems to work with 11 (in Vista Ultimate, if that matters). In Windows 7 running WMP 12, I cannot for the life of me get network shares in my Windows Media Library to share with my other computers on my network. I've googled quite a bit and only come up with copies all over the Internet of the same Microsoft KB article about the aforementioned registry edit.

i7 quad, 8g ram, Home Premium. Delivered Thursday this week. Updated all the way, AVG antivirus, Comodo Firewall (FW only!). every startup, every reboot, the blue tooth (Targus and MS) mouse is incredibly NOT smooth. 20% more and it would be unuseable. If i go to the View Bluetooth devices and remove the mouse then fresh search for it-find it-install it, now the Bluetooth mouse is as sweet and pleasant as can be. If I remove it before shutdown the find and add after boot, same thing.But just reboot and it's back to horrible. A wireless mouse (with dongle thingie) works fine, anytime. Phone and online chats with Dell have led to them pointing me to the Intel site for the driver packageBT_2.2_s64.exe. Downloaded, installed, exact same behavior.
Reboot and the mouse needs a kick- remove and rediscover and it's fine. Uninstall the Intel package, base MS/Win7 bluetooth enum, same thing.Found similar but more comprehensive driver and installer package for the Intel 2200 half card wireless on Lenovo website. (300+MB!) Installed it, at least it does Install the Intel ProSet package into running/starting services.. Same mouse behavior. Tried setting some things to 'Auto-Delayed start'...Search the internet and I see a lot of people have the similar problem, some even when the close the laptop lid and reopen- or half a dozen variations on this.Even more frustrating is I have a slightly aged Inspiron N5010 Laptop with W7 home prem that these same mice work flawlessly with it;s Dell 365 bluetooth module.

i noticed that when i open my task manager sometimes just randomly windows media player network sharing service configuration application runs, but not only 1 there is 5-6 of them all taking about the same amount.I tried looking online for tutorials i tried disabling it in registry in the processes tab but nothing would work. I am running a small home network with 2 pc one on windows 7 and one on xp but the funny thing is that even if the second one is off this process starts by itself.I am running Windows 7 Professional x64, Windows media player 12?

My PS3 at one point showed the Windows 7 "DLNA" icon and I was able to stream my music, picture, movies and all that good stuff without a problem. I even have an app on my Android phone called "2player" that would allow me to stream my music from my laptop to my phone (just the way the PS3 would allow me to) but I have come to the terrible discovery that my PS3 nor my android phone are picking up my laptop. I have been to many forums, websites and other means of assistance and it seems that all of my settings are correct, yet I can't seem to find a fix to this issue. I am hoping that someone has good news for me as I have tried just about everything and nothing has worked. Also, I am aware that Windows 7 has an available "play to" option...well my laptop doesn't give me that option.

I have been having some trouble with File Sharing today. I have been working on setting up my media center with XBMC. All of the media and data is stored on a home server. A large percentage of the time when I try to start a movie or something, my computer will "disconnect" from the server. It will try for several seconds and then fail, or if I tell Samba (on the server) to terminate the connection. I have tried using another computer (a laptop) and it works fine, even when the trouble computer will not work. Because of this, I do not believe it is a server-sided issue. I can also browse the folders just fine until it "disconnects". The strange thing is that when this happens and until it fails, the Computer and Network folders won't load.

Long story short I just want to connect my Windows Media Player/Center to my Xbox 360.I can't enable streaming from the Media Player. It wont show the button or option at all.I have also tried to open homegroup and turning on media sharing and it wont turn on. The button turns grey for a moment then it goes back to saying "Turn on media streaming".From the Windows Media Center I can get some kind of connectivity to the Xbox, but its very brief. Usually when I go to set up the extender it gets to building media library on the "Windows Media Center" then the "Xbox Windows Media Center" gives a failed to connect, retry or cancel.If I take a peek into the network from the explorer the media devices shows Xbox 360 Media Extender and it disappears within 3 seconds also another that says Xbox 360 which stays.I have tried going into services.msc and making sure UPnP, SSDP, Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service are enabled. I also disabled Windows Media Player/Center from the windows defaults to try and reinstall it.

I have an external USB drive attached to a Windows 7 Ultimate box. The USB drive has video files that I stream to my Samsung TV using DLNThe setup works except last night when I copied over .MP4 files to the USB drive. For this file extension, the files did not show as playable over DLNA. Is there a way to enable the setup to recognize this file extension?

WMC recording/playback and media/file sharing seems to work fine until I go to copy a file between drives, where one of those drives is currently using some of its i/o bandwidth to do media. The copy hogs the i/o bandwidth, doing nasty things to the real-time needs. How do I permanently tell Windows 7 x64 to do all [explorer] copies at a lower CPU and i/o (explorer.exe & system) priority and/or elevate WMC CPU & i/o (ehshell.exe?) and file/media sharing priorities a bit? The PC is up to date on patches/drivers and should be able to prioritize obvious applications.

I have my PC (Windows 7 Professional) set up to share its media with my Xbox 360. As long as files added to my media library are stored locally on my C: drive, they show up on my console. If I add a folder which is on my external G: drive, its contents appear in the media library but do not appear on the console. I'm not sure if this is because of some security settings on the external drive- I think the problem began when I updated to Windows 7 and took ownership of the external hard drive (because "<unknown contact>" was listed as the files' owner).

I am new to windows 7, and was trying to run the tutorials supplied my microsoft, but every time I try, I get a message saying that I need to download windows media player.
I will never learn anything at this rate. I cant see why the windows 7 creators would insist I use a player with the windows name, windows media player, if it does not even work. How limited and it should be embarassing.

BSOD while I was watching a movie using windows media player and had a few Google Chrome tabs open. This has happened several times already with no apparent pattern. Built my system at the end of 2010, added the GPU 2 months ago. Has been happening before and after the addition.

I have ran into a new problem with my media player, I tried to play a movie from a tv series and the video plays great but absolutely no sound. I tried music and it won't play either. I did some little research and I keep coming across things about codecs, I don't know what codec I need for windows media 12. I also have divx player and it wont let out a sound either. I'm clueless from this point and also I have updated my drivers for just incase but no luck.

I am running windows media center in windows 7 pro. I am getting choppy video sometimes (recorded tv, streaming downloads, and other video files). The problem goes away if I reboot the computer but comes back again the next day or even sooner. I would like a guess as to whether the problem night be my video card, a codec, windows 7 itself or something else.

I am trying to take some training videos at a website [URL]. The videos are in windows media player format embedded in IE. I selected 4 trainings. So these are in my favorite list. I launched the first video, a new window opened and it started buffering the video and then the video started. I face a problem when I closed this video and wanted to go to the next one. A new window opens with windows media player embedded in the window but it doesn't do buffering to play. Interestingly, it still showing the title of the previous training that I closed. Looks like it is getting stuck in the memory. I am using IE 9 on Win7 (64bit).

After unsolvable problems with VLC player (constant crash reports) I want to move back to Windows Media Player as my standard program to play audio & video files.But whatever I click and do, I cannot find a way to (re)associate the 'VLC'-files to WMP12.If I rightclick a 'VLC'-file in a folder, I can select 'open with' and then select WMP. But only for one instance! If i want to make WMP the default opener, I get this error message: 'This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel' - Strange message, because this file HAS a default program already, I just want to change it!I have desperately been looking for an option Windows had in the past, where you can (in explorer, I think) get a list of ALL file extensions, then select which program to use to open a specific extension, then check the box

So when I try to watch recorded TV programs or watch videos. I get an error what says: Video error files needed to display video are not installed or not working correctly. Please restart Media Center and/or restart the computer. I have restart both. Not work. I have read several forums and update drivers and uninstall drivers and do everything what there has been. But nothing. I have Windows 7 (32-bit), Ati Radeon HD 5670 1gb video card, 4000gb ram, AMD Athlon (tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4000+ 2.1 ghz (maybe) 2 CPU's. Its been working before and im not do any big changes to my computer. Only thing what i do is that I installed Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six Vegas.
