Can't Stream PC videos to TV

Postby rickrothstein » 01 Sep 2018 09:53

First of all, I am a total novice when it comes to vlc, so if I am not following the proper etiquette and protocol for this forum please accept my apologies. I am using VLC Version 2.2.4 WeatherWax, Windows 10 Home x64 and have an Intel Core i7-6700 CPU @ 3.40 GHz. I am trying to stream my home videos on my pc to my sony BRAVIA KDL-40EX720 tv which is hooked up via wired ethernet to the same network as my PC. The IP address for my computer is 192.168.1.65 and for my tv it is 192.168.1.244. I also have a Fire TV stick 2nd generation hooked up to an HDMI port on my tv, but I am currently not using the firestick to accomplish the streaming. Maybe I should be—I don’t know. Perhaps it would be easier. Anyway, I am following the instructions on how to accomplish the streaming that are given at the following web site:

https://videoconverter.wondershare.com/ ... ml#part2

After I complete the instructions and finally open the network stream and press the play button, the video fails to stream to the tv. Instead sometimes nothing happens and I get the following error:

Your input can't be opened:
VLC is unable to open the MRL 'http://192.168.1.65'. Check the log for details

But I have no idea where to find the “log” of the details and I’m not sure I could make heads or tails of it anyway.
Other times the video freezes and I can hear the audio portion playing but nothing streams to the tv.
Still other times the video plays fine on the PC but does not stream to the tv.

The reason I am just giving the URL for the web site and nothing else is because it would be too much of a pain to post all the screen shots and instructions here. I have posted only a portion of the messages because they are too long to post in their entirety. I can’t understand what the messages mean anyway.

I am also using port 8080 to do the streaming. Is this the right port to be using? Should I be using the tv’s ip address instead of the computer’s ip address? I have been wrestling with this streaming problem for quite some time now and I just can’t seem to figure it out. I thought streaming with vlc was supposed to be fairly straightforward but I am finding that not to be the case. I have tried to “cast” my videos to my tv with Windows Media Player 12 which is much easier but I can’t get IT to work properly either. Perhaps you could suggest an easier media streamer to use? I would greatly appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks!

OK, here is a portion of the messages. They were too long to post in their entirety.

Re: Can't Stream PC videos to TV

Did you enable streaming through advanced network settings on your pc? Are you sharing the folder? Is your TV a smart one? Do you have a roku or fire stick?

Re: Can't Stream PC videos to TV

Postby CrocNZ » 17 Sep 2018 14:33

I am like rickrothstein - I can't understand why it is so easy using WMP to simply "Cast" to my Panasonic TV via the network, yet the process to do the same using VLC, while apparently possible, is completely beyond me. Is there a set of instructions anywhere that somebody of normal intelligence could follow? Or even find? The computer is Windows 10 and I can't copy and paste the version of VLC (3.0.4) because it changes to something like somebody's stupid email address when I go near it with the cursor. I can't believe that you need a computer science degree to do this...

Also, I blundered on to something on the VideoLAN website that said that streaming via Chromecast was not yet available - yet there are lots of sites coming up on Google search saying that it has been working for most of this year. Which is it? And if Chromecast does work, is it just as impossible to configure?

Re: Can't Stream PC videos to TV

Postby johnchaffey » 16 May 2021 00:43

I'm sorry if this isn't the same question, I'm not that technical, but here's the issue: I have a Firestick 4K. I use VLC as the media player (streamer?). When I switch from a paid streamer, say Netflix, to my local network, I often get the error msg: "no media files found please transfer some files to our device or adjust your preferences." Up until that moment, all the videos in my home drive, a PC using Win10, worked fine. I have to unplug the Fire Stick and plug it back in again (thanks, Roy) and the issue is resolved. I do this 3 or 4 times a night, and it is very annoying. Is there anything I can do to avoid this problem? Thank you
