Anyone have any ideas on how to stream movies and things like that from my PC to my Xbox One? I've heard Plex is good, but didn't know if there were any other way to go about it. Forgive me if there was already another thread about this, or if this seems like a stupid question.

Does it need to go through the Xbox One specifically? Chromecast is great for sending stuff from your PC to TV.

Well, I don't have a Chromecast so I'd like to keep it on Xbox One. But thanks for the suggestion!

MS is trying to pretend WMC doesn't exist by not including it on the xbox one.

Didn't the last update add DNLA functionality to the console? I would guess one of the native apps should be able to find anything on a pc/sever on your local network with that.

Yes, there is DNLA functionality.

Currently the plex app for xbox one is beta and only available to people with a subscription.

It would require you to set up the server app on your PC, but it would definitely work once the xbox one app is released.
