Default Sudden streaming issues

Hey cp,

I use windows shares on my windows 7 computer to share my media directory. To play on my phone I used EX file explorer and dice player on android, and on my TV WD live.

I never had any issues with any file format, MKV, mp4, whatever. Tonight I get home from the theatre and nothing but issues. I've reset every piece of hardware I have here, modem router computer tv wd live, everything. Suddenly everything is acting strange and nothing works properly like before.

What gives? I need some tips and advice on this trouble shooting as I'm all out. Mp4's still work for reason, is the only starting point I have.

Oh and now on wd live I can't even see my windows shares. Ugh. I'm turning all this off and going to bed

I use a Roku 3 and Plex and sometimes it will act strange if my Java or Silverlight needs to be updated.

I think you should ditch your android stuff and go Apple - stream from a Mac or iphone to airplay is so easy. Look into it.

I thought the op was having an issue peeing. I was going to suggest starting with a prostate exam........

I see this has something to do with computers - carry on.

So I updated my framework.net or something thinger on windows, and the morning after everything was fine. Dice player no longer plays MKV on my android, so I'm using a new thing just called "player". Works just as well as dice did before.

I'd switch to apple but I dont like mac OS. In a couple years from now when I will almost have to get windows 8 at that point I may decide on Mac but for now; no thanks.
