Windows 10: How do I get browser Media Controls to always be visible?

I'm on Windows 10 Enterprise and I am playing audio through the Edge browser I can't download any apps because it's a work computer so don't suggest that! when my computer locks the media controls are visible in the bottom right of the lock screen. Is there any way to make the media controls visible all the time? I would like to not have to maximize my browser window every time I want to pause or skip. Thank you.

windows media player

Hi,

Thank you for posting on Microsoft Communities.

What is the exact error message you get when you to try play files on Windows Media Player?

I suggest you to run both Windows Media Player Library and Settings troubleshooter and check.

Step 1: If your computer is having problems playing video or audio files in Windows Media Player, try using the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter to fix the problem. The troubleshooter checks the configuration and network settings
for Windows Media Player to make sure that you can play content you've downloaded and saved to your computer, or content streaming over a network or the Internet.

Steps to run Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter are as follows:

• Press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.
• In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click
  Troubleshooting.
• Click View all, and then click Windows Media Player Settings
  and follow the instructions.

Step 2: If your computer is having problems accessing your collection of digital media files in the Windows Media Player Library, try using the Windows Media Player Library troubleshooter to fix the problem. The troubleshooter makes sure
Windows Media Player is correctly installed on your computer, and checks to see whether your Player Library is corrupted.

Steps to run Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter are as follows:

• Press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.
  
• In the search box, type troubleshooter, and then click
  Troubleshooting.
• Click View all, and then click Windows Media Player Library
  and follow the instructions.

Media Cloud on Intranet

Killer_Rubber_Ducky,
Just to recap after talking with you....
The school is a private school funded 100% by donations so money is tight (isn't it with everyone?) which is why you are looking for a solutions (or combination) to build this...

Existing hardware includes:

• 10gbps fiber network backbone to all buildings
• 20 buildings in plan for media distribution (equal to 20 managed switches)
• 100 mbps inside all buildings from 1gbps fiber ports through managed switches
• 15 Servers - Windows, VmWare, & Linux (Linux for web servers, LDAP, Radius, and Wireless Controller). Linux builds installed on virtual machines with vmware ESXi.

Media to be distributed:

• Existing media converted to digital (CDs, DVDs, VHS, etc....)
• Any new digital media purchased (or licensed) by the school
• Pictures
• Documents (viewing only)
• Streaming (Netflix, Pandora, etc....) NOTE: Access to this needs to be controlled on a user basis. Students should not have free access at all times...

Design intent:

• Client Side Experience:
  • Controller (perhaps touch screen device) provides access to the media and controls what is played and where it is played (locally on the controller as a preview or on the Monitor).
  • Monitor - (LCD TV / or other connected via IP on network or to controller?)
  • User Authentication required (to access the media library) looking to Active Directory (LDAP) for permissions.
• Server Side Experience:
  • Manage All Client Devices (Add, Remove, Schedule, IP Assignments, etc...)
  • Client Statistics (see history, current, and other statistical data)
  • Media Management (Add, Delete, Approve, other)
  • User Accounts (This is for the management of this media system only. Access is controlled by Active Directory permissions and provided through LDAP).

Your mention of the "cloud" only implies the physical concept for the media server using vmware (or other virtualization app) to host a Server image and manage data thru-put. Right? Since the school is exploring a purchase of a new server loaded with RAM - This may be a good idea...Any throughts from anyone else?

Did I leave anything out?

 

Fan control for 4870X2 broken in 1.17

Fixed fan controls yes. Annoying profiles yes. Buggy code yes.

I'd rather just set it and forget it as the feature list of RBE suggested it was capable of doing.
