Hello all,
I am struggling with getting the streaming media service to start. Fresh build of 2012 r2 after moving my existing content over to the appropriate pictures/music/videos folders that were created with the initial install. I installed the Media Pack. The install went fine, but the Essentials Media Streaming Service will not start. Find the relevant logs below, I cant figure out why it refuses to start. Looking for some troubleshooting ideas.
