    stop notifcations from showing while watching full screen videos?


    So I'm watching movies on Jriver media center in full screen and I get notifications from windows 10/cortana going through the videos. Is there a option in windows to prevent this?

    Type notifications in "find a settings" box in Settings to see options....scroll down further to see more options.

    Hello, Action centre: I only know of settings (see the bottom of this):
    How to Control Windows 10 Notifications in the Action Center | Page 2 | Digital Trends
    which you would have to turn off manually as appropriate

    Then there are Autoplay notifications, which you shouldn't get unless you do something....

    Windows update notifications.
    How do I disable this full-screen update notification? : Windows10

    I don't know what Cortana notifications you are seeing- I never see any. Could you clarify?

    I doubt there's a convenient way to turn notifications on and off before and after a video.

    I tied cortana to my phone also. so i can messages and emails to my pc and reply to them sometime. These and other notifications from Action Center pops into videos. So far i haven't experience this yet when playing games. I think i found a quicker way to disable them from showing up. I went into Action Center and enabled quiet hours.

    This seems to turns off all notifications, including while i am desktop too.

    As stated in my post.....scroll down to choose apps you want it to block, it should list your jriver media centre.

    oh sorry. Jriver isn't listed under there. I think the best approach right now is just to turn on Quiet Hours in do not disturb situations.

    I note you have changed jriver to Cortana in your opening thread....so you can turn OFF Cortana banners and sounds as it is listed as suggested.....
