  1. Music files not playing on TV or radio


    For some years I have play music and display photographs stored on an aging DLNA compliant NAS via a Panasonic Smart TV using Viera Tools > Media Server.



    I have now copied my music and photographs to a new Windows 10 PC and have no problems displaying the photographs on the TV. However, the music is a different matter. The folders and files are displayed, and the files look ready to play, but they will not play. I have been blaming the TV but have just tested playing the music via a portable radio with the same result – the folders and music files display but do not play.



    Any suggestions where the problem lies?

    :)

    Windows 10 laptop unable to 'see' Roberts Stream 93i radio


    I've been working out how to get my Roberts Stream 93i Internet Radio to play music from my two Win 10 Pro PCs.

    The desktop, after enabling media streaming via the link in WMP, sees the Roberts radio and my Dell laptop. The radio sees the Desktop and happily plays music from that PC.

    The laptop, after enabling media streaming via the link in WMP, does not see the Roberts radio, but it does see my desktop. Thus the radio doesn't see the laptop and is therefore unable to play music from the laptop.

    When I use "Cast to" on a music file it momentarily says searching then shows the Roberts radio. But 'Casting' to the radio has no effect.

    However the radio is not shown in the Connected Device list in the PC Settings, and trying Add Device fails to find it (though it does find a neighbour's Sony Bravia TV).

    The desktop is Ethernet connected to the router, the laptop is wirelessly connected, as is the Roberts radio. Could it be the laptop's WiFi somehow inhibiting connection to the radio?

    The only other difference I can think of is that the laptop is running Win 10 Anniversary Edition (build 1607), the desktop is running the November 2015 build (1511).

    Rebooting the laptop made no difference.

    I have a feeling it's going to be something simple. But I need a steer in the right direction.

    Any thoughts would be most welcome?

    Music files not playing on TV or radio

    Music Metadata grabber

    Been working on sorting movies/tv shows/music and looking for something thats free and grabs metadata for my music files. I could do it all manually, but having something that helps would be nice. Anyone got a suggestion?
