Open videos in remote location with the Video app in Windows 8.1

[Keyser]

Hi all

I'm new to Windows 8.1 and it's driving me crazy (what a POS). Anyways, does anyone know how I can browse a remote location with the Video app? I open it and can't find any way of doing that. It only shows local files.

Thanks

Edit: Before actually wanting to do this, I remember I opened some othe app (in Windows 8.1 style, but not Xbox Video) that showed a list of films, TV shows and I don't remember what else, including the remote libraries in my network. Sadly, I can't seem to remember what it was. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I know it's not much info, but I don't remember anything else.

Would browsing the remote location with File Explorer, and opening with the video app be good enough?

I guess that's what I'll have to do. I just think it would be kinda nice to see a list of the local/remote contents categorized by Films, TV shows, etc.

But, thanks, it would be good enough!
