I'm having difficulty sending content to play to my XBMB3C using the Webclient. Any other types of client works just fine. What exactly is missing to get this feature working? Is something not being communicated to the server? I thought maybe it had to do with Sessions/Capabilities/PlayableMediaTypes. Please help me by pointing me in the right direction to narrow down why I can't use the "Webclient Play To" feature.

 

In MBS server log, I get the following error when I try to play content to XBMB3C:

2014-11-01 10:45:53.6767 Error - DtoUtils: ServiceBase<TRequest>::Service Exception

Yes, that error would indicate that the target system is reporting it cannot play the type of item you are attempting.  Or, rather, it is NOT reporting that it can.
