Where is the "Play To" feature of the Windows Media Play in the Windows 7 RC 7100 build?
Hi,I have two PC (one desk top and one lap top). Both computers are running the Windows 7 RC 7100 build. I'm trying to use the "Play To" feature of the WMP 12 to play a song from the desk to the lap top. When I right click a media, I do not see the "Play To" select in the pop-up menu.How do I test this feature? Thanks, Bobby

You can find a detailed how-to in the blog "Engineering Windows 7": http://blogs.msdn.com/e7/archive/2009/05/12/media-streaming-with-windows-7.aspx PlayTo: "If you would like to send media from one Windows 7 PC to another, choose Allow remote control of my Player from the Windows Media Player Stream menu on the receiving PC. This will cause Windows Media Player to be discovered in the Play To menu of other Windows 7 PCs on the same network. When media streaming is enabled on your Windows 7 PC, Play To will be available in Windows Media Player and Windows Explorer via the right click menu for media items. If Windows 7 has not discovered a Play To capable PC or device on the network, this context menu will not be available."
