Well this was a tricky one. I installed Windows 8 Enterprise and found that my Xbox 360 VIDEO APP would not connect to my Win8 PC… or should I say any of my Win8 PC’s. Very frustrating considering they are all tied together by a Home Group and the Xbox was activated as an Extender to my Media Center machines.
I thought this had to do with authentication. I wanted to figure out how to enter my Windows 8 credentials in Xbox but, as you can see in the screen shots below, the solution was not so dramatic .
On your Windows 8 PC:
- go to the START tiles page
- type MEDIA SH
- select SETTINGS from the menu on the right
- Select MEDIA STREAMING OPTIONS
- Enable sharing with your XBOX
