Hello,
Config: PC on Win10, Freebox V5 Router
I would like to launch a movie on the PC and watch it on the TV (not in the same room).
I found information about the FreeMi UPnP Media Server application. I downloaded and installed it. To use it from the TV (via the router), it needs to be configured from the PC.
My problem: I launch it on the PC but it doesn't show up. It's running in the background. How can I get it to run in the foreground like all the other apps? Thanks.
Note: Acrobat Reader sometimes does this too, and I have only found the solution of reinstalling it for it to work correctly again.
Configuration: Windows10 32 bits / Freebox v5

Hello,
My problem is solved. I found the solution on a FREE users' site.
Once launched, FreeMi UPnP runs in the background but is accessible from the hidden taskbar icon in the notification area (bottom right). You can find it, and a right-click gives you access to the settings/functions/stop/restart server...etc.
Thank you for your contributions.
