Configure network shares in your Windows home network(WDTV live)

By Wednesday, February 22, 2012 No comments
            You want to make the network shares which Windows Media Player views also accessible to your WDTV Media Center, and access their contents on your TV. But it does not work somehow.
            Before you begin with the configuration of Windows Media Player, you must check a few basic conditions and settings. Naturally, you need Windows 7 or Windows Vista for this; Windows XP users are not included. The account with which you are logged in must have administrative permissions for configuring some of these settings (to change administrator permissions, find the required settings under ‘Control Panel | User Accounts Add/remove user accounts’).
            The name of your server should not contain non-standard characters such as ä, ö, ü, etc. You can fi nd your computer name by right clicking ‘Desktop’ and then clicking ‘Properties’. If the computer name contains accented characters, you can change this under ‘Change settings’. As for the network settings, you should ensure that your WDTV device can be detected by Windows on the network. A click on ‘Network’ in the Start menu will show all devices that can be discovered. If your WDTV can be seen here under ‘Media Devices’, then everything is OK. If not, you must change the network settings in the ‘Network and Sharing Center’ accordingly.
             Now open Windows Media Player and go to ‘Stream | Turn on media streaming…;. Click the ‘Configure Shares’ button. In the next window, activate your WDTV device which shows up in the list. Now go to ‘Customize…’. Here, you can select the media that must be forwarded to your WDTV. Then close the window with ‘OK’.
