We have remote locations each with 2 ASUS media extenders that stream from a computer with a shared Media Player library. Lately, several of these locations experience the "wmpnetwork.exe" service throttling the CPU to 100% usage. Killing the service only results in it starting back up, and so far the only temporary solution is to uninstall Media Player. A lot of these computers are also about 3-5 years old. Could it just be a case of outdated hardware not being able to do everything we ask them to do? Edit: all running Windows XP and Windows Media Player 11
The only clients that are having the issue are the ones that have the shared library and need to stream the media – Brenton Taylor – 2010-10-11T13:10:53.113
Is it not possible to move the libraries to some other PC? @Brenton – Sathyajith Bhat – 2010-10-11T15:54:33.520
We can move the libraries to another PC, however we prefer to keep them on the same PC's we set them up on to mirror our other location's setup – Brenton Taylor – 2010-10-11T15:59:27.620
