fredmarkle 0 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 If I am trying to watch my media through the windows 8.1 app on the server computer itself. What ip address and port do I use. I typed in the normal stuff but it doesn't work. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Unfortunately it's not working due to an artificial restriction from Microsoft. They don't allow loopback for Windows 8.1 apps. There are some third party workarounds to allow this, I don't quite recall the specifics but I'm sure there are members here who can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37065 Posted July 15, 2014 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Oh nevermind, wouldn't you know. We have a sticky thread about it at the top of the forum: http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/4360-howto-runnning-server-and-app-on-the-same-machine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
