Windows 10: Cast to Device Xbox One

Hello,


I am trying to play an *.mp4 file using cast to device and my Xbox One actually shuts off.


Here is my setup:


NAS drive (ethernet cable)

to

Internet router (ethernet cable)

Xbox one


I am using my laptop (WIFI) to control this.


Also, xbox video on my xbox one will not update it will not uninstall either.


Is there a fix for this?

windows 10 cast to device

Hi Steven,

• Do you get any error message when you try to cast the device?
• Does the issue happen when you don't use cast to device, I mean when you are online?
• Which device do you use to cast the content?

If the issue happens only when you cast the device, the issue can be that of the casting device. In that case I would request you to execute the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.

Windows 10 has a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with hardware and devices. I would suggest you to run this troubleshooter to check if the issue is with the Bluetooth adapter. Refer these steps:

• 
  Press Windows key +X, select
  Control panel.
  
• 
  Change the view by option on the top right to
  Large icons.
  
• 
  Click on troubleshooting and click on the
  view all option on the left panel.
  
• 
  Run the Hardware and devices troubleshooter.
  
• 
  Restart your computer and check if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Hope this information is helpful. Thank you.
  

 

Cast to Device

I am experiencing the same issue as well.

Cast to device works well the first time after a system reboot. But once CLEAR LIST is selected, no other images or videos can then be cast to device (in my case Xbox One) until laptop/software is rebooted.

This is very annoying ....

Needs fixing ASAP.

 

Defect in Cast to Device(?)

OS: Windows 10

Device: Xbox One

Defect: Removing the currently playing, or paused, media from the cast to device list does not stop the media.

Summary: When removing the currently playing, or paused, media item from the cast to device list the next media item in the list "inherits" the "handle" of the removed media item. The next media item retains the expected media's title and thumbnail image.
Pausing and resuming the media pauses and resumes the removed media item. Stopping the media and playing the media plays the removed media item from the beginning. If the removed media item is the last media item in the list then a "null handle" is "inherited"
and no media plays, pauses, or stops, yet the play button remains tactile.

Expected Behavior: When removing the currently playing, or paused, media item from the cast to device list stop the media. Then, if the previous media item was playing, begin playing next media item, else, queue the next media item and wait for user input.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Add 2 or more media files to the cast to device list.

2) Play a media item (if not automatically started).

3) Right-click and remove the playing media item.

4) Observe behavior described in summary.
