In order to keep this tutorial simple, we are going to assume that you have already done the following:

  • Connected the Xbox 360 to your home network (either with an ethernet cable or via Wi-Fi), and have configured it accordingly.
  • You have a Windows Media Player 12 music library.

To setup WMP 12 in order to stream content to your Xbox 360, run the program now and follow the steps below.

Enabling The Media Streaming Option

If you haven't previously enabled media streaming in WMP 12, then follow this part of the tutorial to activate it.

  1. Ensure you are in library view mode. You can quickly get to this by holding the CTRL key down on your keyboard and pressing 1.
  2. In library view, click the Stream drop-down menu near the top of the screen. From the list of options, click Turn on Media Streaming.
  3. On the screen that is now displayed, click on the Turn on Media Streaming button.
  4. If you want to give your music library a specific title when being shared, then type the name of it in the text box. You don't have to do this but it can make more sense than seeing something shared over your home network that has a non-descriptive name.
  5. Ensure that the Allowed option is selected for your PC's media programs and connections and also the Xbox 360.
  6. Click the OK button.
