Nvidia Shield - Direct Play - Not working according to Documentation

Just hopping back in again quick... 

Are there any versions of Emby that still support Direct File Access?

The latest version does if you are on Android 10 or less.  However, why do you feel you need it?

I mentioned this before, but, it's so that It can use a local network path instead of trying to stream files across the internet

• Emby Server lives in New York
• New York (My House) has a NAS mapped to IP 192.168.1.50 which houses all the Media files
• California (Parent's House) has a NAS mapped to IP 192.168.1.50 that serves as my offsite backup (File structure is the same, auto syncs all the files)
• Both locations have an nVidia Shield, a 2015pro and a 2017pro. (I would have no problem swapping to different hardware if we think that's a solution)
• When they play files from CA, I'd like it to play from their drive, so that it doesn't have to rely on trying to stream large media files over the internet.
