Hello tanner Steve,

Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

To better help, please relay if the PC under Windows XP is connected wired or wireless.

In addition, the computers are connected using the same router?

  • WMP-11 / WinXP Media Sharing error - HELP!

    Two PC, both with WinXP SP3 Home on them.  A desk, a pro audio (& much faster).  But the sharing of multimedia files from WMP - 11 does NOT work on the faster Pro-Audio PC; It hangs for about 45 seconds when the box is checked, then recovers, but shows NO results to select from.  It will do this several times.  There is also a NEW unit of Panasonic Blu - ray wireless streaming and a pioneer of the NEW network 7.1 surround receiver on the network.  The 'desktop' PC sees the BD & receiver & allows them to be selected in the sharing of multimedia files.  The BD player sees the network and can ONLY play files (jpg & mp3 only, dammit) to the Office PC, but will NOT be connected to or see the Pro-audio PC either.  The Pioneer receiver does NOT show it sees PC EITHER although it should and still iTunes on the PC Pro-Audio sees the receiver AND my sound card (MOTU Traveler Mk3) pro and will play to / thru either (yay iTunes, WMP-11 Boo)!

    OK, Yes, the system is a bit complex, but quite impressive with a projected screen of 92 "w X 52" h. also. "  I tried following instructions to automate & and/or start Win connected services / nobody to charge on wmpnetwk.exe (of WMP Network Media Sharing (EXE), but nothing.  I even completely removed & reinstalled all MS .net Framework (1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0), but am always errors using MS-implementation to date for new installations.  I'm really starting to think this life Techno is complete rubbish, and I need to ' drop the electronic device and just leave quickly. "  Too bad I'm thousands of $$ in it, and have a lot of hours-life lost to it already.  No matter what other geniuses out there who can tell me how to solve this mess?

    Well to set up WMP sharing open WMP, tools, options, Library tab, tap on the

    the button "configure sharing" & edit. Also, look in the devices tab, L.click on the

    material, press the tab properties & edit...

    WMP is a utility called "WMDiag.

    Download this from microsoft, it tests WMP

    In addition, removing & reinstalling the software such as .NET can / will cause major BONE

    problems...

    WMDiag creates several large reports, which none did tell ME what it is.  I'm not a programmer.  You don't mention where to send these reports to be decifered for help.  Difficulty of MS it don't find problems or correct them, and in the last two tests, he reported that he "encountered an error & could not continue", sending me to a non-specific solve this site (I've had NO idea where to go from there).  A large PART of my experience of MS's tail-chasing and dead ends.  The team of Bill Gates should start again with a SIMPLE operating system that will work with all existing software (too simplified, but a good idea).

    In the end, I spent 4 days of eight hours, trying to solve these problems: not .net Framework package would update via MS up-to-date and sharing the media would HANG about 25 seconds when trying to put on the March (then would produce NO result).  Most of this time was looking, trying some different procedures suggested on the ballots of Ms.  It was excrutiating and a gigantic waste of time.  It could have been resolved in an hour, was easy to find... good info but it really wasn't.  Too many paths, & many people having the same problem.

    Finally, with the help of .net cleanup tool and other processes long regsvr32.exe command line, I was able to fix the Windows Update system files, reinstall all .net Framework 1.1 to 4.0 and incredibly stupid boring packages, finally got each update offered by MSUpdate installed.  Curiously and fortunately, which also fixed the problem of sharing of media files.  WMP - 11 now allows sharing and recognizes the wireless Panasonic BD-streaming player AND pioneer in network receiver/amp.

    Since MS Answers seems exclusively designed for people with problems MUCH more simple (like how to follow instructions), where should we do when they have REAL problems in the system that NEED to be repaired as soon as POSSIBLE so normal work can continue?  I've always been very frustrated with the interface 'Help & Support' offered in the start - menu, it has generally been quite worthless (Googling is preferable).  This .net of all penalty framework update that many know should have been handled by MS much more quickly & efficiently.

    There are many more, but I'll leave it at that since I have fixed my problem. -DMS

  • Media sharing in Vista stops after 20 minutes

    I have two computers, one running Vista Home, the other running Vista professional.  Vista Home computer is connected to my stereo and has no media stored directly on it.  I can turn on media sharing to it will work perfectly, but then after about twenty minutes, it will stop.  The computer is always connected to the network, can still see the other computer, and if I disable media sharing, and then turn it back on, it will be fine.  I tried to find an explanation, but I can't.

    I have a laptop, too, and it can connect to the computer Vista Pro without problems or interruptions.  The Vista Pro computer can play media off of my computer Vista Home (I put some there to test) without interruption.  The laptop and the Vista Home computer, connect to my wireless network, Vista Pro is connected using a wired connection.

    Any kind of understand why this is happening or what I can do to solve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

  • The xbox 360 Media Player no longer plays music after that I upgraded my CPU. Error message: media sharing service has been terminated

    Original title: the xbox 360 Media Player plays more music after I upgraded my CPU

    I have Vista 64 SP2.  The service runs for 5 seconds and then I get the message that she stopped. He was works well for years (my Xbox 360 sharing), I'm guessing he stopped a few weeks ago after I put in a slightly faster processor. I watched a some tech posted and tried to run the program which seeks the corrupted system files, but the only files that it could not pay had to do with the sidebar Windows. I have removed and put back my media extender, I thought that it worked because I've seen (from my xbox) miniature images, videos and music counting upward, as they have been added and I could see them. But if I take one he freezes for a few seconds and then says the media sharing service took end (or something like that). Then, I go to my PC and see that it stops. I can restart, but it only lasts for 5 to 10 seconds.

    I also say a post about deleting files in C:\Program Data\Microsoft\DRM, but I have all the files in there. Just a server folder empty.

  • Network of Windows media sharing service player does not start - Vista and PS3

    I am running Vista 32 bit Home Premium and trying to share my media to DLNA on my PS3 PC using Windows Media Sharing Service. UPnP is enabled. Network discovery is turned on. File sharing is enabled. Media sharing is turned on.

    Whenever I visit Windows Media Player or try to change the setting of sharing media in network and sharing Center, there is the error message "media sharing is currently disabled, either because the sharing service is not running or your firewall settings have changed. To restart sharing, you must first confirm your settings.

    During the deactivation and reactivation of sharing multimedia files, I never see PS3 on the list (not a single unknown device appears). Also I see no Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service on the list of Services - there is no way to toggle the service or do start automatically.

    There are several user accounts on this PC and I made the changes on my admin account.

    Tried a 3rd party software Java "PS3 Media Server" and makes my Vista computer show on PS3 without parameters or modifications to firewall. This suggests that the WIFI, router, network discovery and UPnP work. I prefer to use Windows services if I would only get their work.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
