Referring to the user guide available from this link:https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1254256/Western-Digital-My-Cloud-Pr2100.html

Go to page 62 and you will see the section on setting up a media server. If the server is configured correctly then watching movies by streaming should be possible.

Hope that helps.
