So you navigate to the shared folder that contains the Windows Media files, and nothing happens? If you're using File Explorer, a single tap will do the trick. That's strange, do you receive any type of error, or does it just do nothing?

no you just see the little blue circles moving in a circle and nothing happens.

The way I do it is using NetUse, Total Commander, and WMP. NetUse establishes a network drive to my desktop, TotalCommand allows me to explore the network drive. Double-tapping on a wma, wmv, etc. file lanuches WMP against that file.

Right, but I believe he can access the share, so that's not an issue. Are you sure you have your WiFi Power Save Mode disabled?

TechnoGuy

you have to disable it to ge this to work.

I get canot open file access denied

On some routers maybe. All I know is that the video was very choppy with wmv files, but when I disabled powersave, it seemed faster. It's just something to try @ this point. Other than some type of permissions issue, I really can't see what would prevent you from streaming them.

Thanks for the help. It works on my lap top but not on the axim that is weird.
