Issue with PlayReady in Windows 10

1

I have an issue running PlayReady protected streams in my UWP app. When I set the source on a MediaElement it fails with this error:

MF_MEDIA_ENGINE_ERR_SRC_NOT_SUPPORTED : HRESULT - 0x8007023F

I have tried the official samples from MS (https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsapps/PlayReady-samples-for-124a3738) and a sample app from Davide Zordan (https://github.com/davidezordan/playready_adaptive_UWP/). They all throws the error.

If I run a normal SmoothStream I don't seam to have any issues.

I'm pretty sure that the samples are solid and it comes down to a missing SDK or something on my computer(s). I have added the SmoothStreaming Client SDK for UWP apps. I can reproduce the error on 5 different developer machines.

Any help is appreciated.

OK I found the issue. Im working on one computer and remotes to my development machines located at my office. Turns out that by default PlayReady is disabled when using remote desktop.
