Win 10 When I close the lid settings ( media streaming )


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

Since my WD My book live NAS has stopped working and the new version no longer supports dlna/twonky I have been streaming media directly from notebook using Windows 10  media streaming dlna server to my smart tv with dlna.

 

But if the notebook screen in closed it stops working (I need to close it because the cats always want to sit on the keyboard!), in power options>system settings>when I close the lid - I have set both options to do nothing, but the streaming still stops after the lid is closed. I have even changed the setting to say when pc is plugged in never go to sleep.

 

Any ideas? thanks

Thanks, yes that's what I have done and have just changed it back and off again and saved the changes just to be sure but again it stops.

Maybe take a look at the Advanced Power settings.

Thanks, Yes  checked that also. Multimedia settings>when sharing media is set to prevent idling to sleep, also in that same menu Lid Close Action is still showing as do nothing.

 

Cant see any other settings that might relate to this, but must be something somewhere set wrongly.
