    Media server not showing folders.


    Hi

    I will try to explain this as good as i can, when i'm accessing my media library on the computer with my phone it does show all movies/songs in the same folder. I have chosen to share different folders like, E:\movies E:\kids E:\adults C:\user\*\videos. all those folders are shown as only one folder on the device i'm accessing my library with. Sub-folders within the paths does show.

    In Windows 7 the folders did not batch up as only one folder, each path was shown separately.

    I hope you understand what i mean.

    :)

    Windows media player library not showing to other DLNA players

    Hi,

    I have Windows 10 enterprise 64 bit (clean install) machine with media files in custom folders and I would like to use media player as DLNA server. I set up my library in media players so it shows all of these files. I turned on the streaming to other devices.

    I can successfuly connect from other devices (samsung smart TV, android phone with various DLNA player software) to my windows 10 machine. But I cannot see nor play any of the files/folders in my library - all it shows are empty default folders.

    When I set up different DLNA server (e.g. plex server) on my windows 10 machine media is visible to the players. But I would like to keep my media library management as easy as possible that is why I would like to use media player streaming capabilities.

    I never tried setting up DLNA server with previous version of windows and media player so maybe I just lack the neccesary experience for this.

    Could anyone help?

    I did copy some media to default media library folders for my user.

    I already tried deleting cache in %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player.

    after 10586, DLNA-based media streaming not working

    Windows 10 Pro. Prior to 10586, DLNA-based media streaming (using "Playon" media server) working fine.

    After 10586, doesn't work, finds folders on media server, but says no files present in the folders.

    Reverted from 10586.
