    ...and one final bit - you only have to walk to your PC the once. You can 'Cast to...' all your episodes in one go and they will be in the queue to play one after the other. (Yes, I binge too on occasion...) *Smile

    And one last final note from me (before we completely derail this topic (still open to questions/support for OP though!). With premeditated binge watching you're absolutely right but I'm a relentess cinephile and have days where I follow my flow in watching movies 24/7 so I'd still have to get up from that very very comfy couch*Wink

    But to tackle that I will look into the remote desktop options. So far none were to my satisfaction but you inspired some new ideas for which I will open a new topic should the need arise since that would feel more appropiate.

    GL to you!
    @Gelbs: Did you figure it out yet?

    MKV is not supported by Windows Media Player. You must install MKV codec for WMP to make it work. Use other codecs, like ffmepg (vlc is using) if media play codec pack is useless. But if it is still not working, you'd better find a new player.

    I solved this long ago by abandoning WMP and moving to K-Lite.
    It plays everything.
    On XP. On 7. On 10.
