Just purchased can't seem to stream anything from my PC to the TV...I have zero issues doing this on my Panasonic smart TV in my living room

When I go to media streaming options my Vizio TV doesn't even show up:

My Panasonic TV is there, and when I right click a video file I can scroll down to "Play Now" and the Panasonic TV is the only option, not the Vizio. (does it have to be connected via ethernet?)

Vizio is connected to my wireless home network, and I can use all the apps (facebook, youtube, etc) fine and watch videos, so I know its connected to my network.

I have a Comcast Xfinity X1 router, I believe it's a Motorola product

Am I missing something?

I tried PLEX, did not work. I'm going to try hardwiring the TV similar to my Panasonic. I have folders setup for sharing on my PC, like I said they work on my Panasonic TV.
