I suspect you want to connect your laptop to play videos or music from your laptop via the Xbox.

I found the best microsoft machine for doing that was the original Xbox, it would stream almost anything.

When the 360 came out I found it handled fewer files than the first Xbox, and that problem became worse after the big interface update in 2009 or so. Many popular codec versions would not work after that update.

Now with the Xbox One apparently it doesn't stream at all via DLNA or otherwise.

See a pattern?
