VAIO Content Sharing

Hi rich912

Thanks for the reply.

Ive already had a look at that and the items I have copied below, the file names do not exactly match the ones on mine (the other 3 files I need to alter, the names match up with ones I have, so that shouldnt be a problem) Not being very technical, I am not sure what these are now called. Any ideas?

I think the link you attached was from 2008 and these files have now changed names. My computer is a VAIO VPCEB4L1E and ive only had it a month.

VAIO Entertainment Database Service
VAIO Entertainment File Import Service

Thanks again

Hi Blackers16,

I have no idea what the recent version of these services is called, but if you list all Vaio services I will take a guess, or maybe another member can help.

I suggest that you try disabling anything with a similar name and then see whether there are any negative effects on other Vaio programs – you can always revert to the original status as long as you make a note of whether the service is set as ‘Automatic’ or ‘Manual’.

Did you try Control Panel and VAIO Media Server settings?

Alternatively, go to Administrative Tools -> Services and stop Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service (& put it in the manual mode so it won't start automatically later)
