Is there a way to do this on 10240?If so how?

 

Connect To Roku Streaming Stick


Hi there

1) Have you enabled Media streaming in the settings.
2) I think you need some type of application to start the Roku service --have you started it.

I use MEZZMO for my Media streamer so I can stream from Computer (server) to TV's around the place -- you need to ensure any DNLA flags are enabled so the devices you want to play on can see and access the DLNA server (in my case MEZZMO).

3) you might need an exception in the firewall but the application should sort that out.

Is your ROKU stick in the computer or on another device like a TV.

Note the ROKU device needs an MHL port to function.

Thanks for your answer.

- My computer is only a month old and has Windows 10 version 1709, OS build 16299.98 in 2017.

- Windows is being updated automatically (the last update was yesterday)

- As recommended, I have removed ROKU device and then added it several times (still "can not connect"}

- I have run Troubleshooter for devices - no problem "device is working properly"

- Checked the ROKU driver - the latest is installed. Bought the ROKU Streaming Stick last month (it is not connected to PC, but works fine from Wi-Fi)

- The Digital Media Server is connected (if it means anything to you)

The whole experience is really frustrating, I hope you can help me.

Thanks again
