Audio Lomb Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Hi There! It would be supernice to have an actual app for Xbox One, kinda like Plex. DLNA streaming from Emby does not work (at all, in my case). I really hope you guys will think about it. Thank you! Claudio 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anything in particular perhaps I can help you with to get things working.

Audio Lomb Posted May 5, 2015 Author Share Posted May 5, 2015 Hi Chef, Thank you for your reply! The "Play To" feature gives me a 500 Error: Is there anything I should setup besides enabling DLNA? Thank you! Claudio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingy444 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 while i too patiently await the xbox one app you should try using internet explorer or media player on the xbox oNe Both are very good workarounds for the mean time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Whenever I get an error like that, ( it is probably some kind of long running task between your mobile and the server which didn't quite complete.) I just refresh the page and re-select the "play to" Xbox one option (it won't be selected after a page refresh) and try again. That will probably clear up the connection issue, and it will work. I find that my iPhone will take a bit longer to load folder images in the web UI. If I select a media item before the whole page loads, I receive the 500 error.

Audio Lomb Posted May 7, 2015 Author Share Posted May 7, 2015 @CHEF: Been there, done that. Plex DLNA (yes, I have the free installation, no Plex pass) works just fine, so it's not an XBOX issue. I have paid the lifetime subscription to Emby because I like it better than Plex, but I would expect some more support, and not just "Moral" support. Come on, I am not the only one here using XBOX One as a Media center. I would expect a working DLNA profile on Emby. Were I more knowledgeable about DLNA I would try myself. However, the reason I "bought" Emby is because I would like to avoid spending hours in troubleshooting DLNA. I love Emby, but my patience bucket is emptying out.

chef Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Okay, try deleting your DLNA profile in the server and use either the default profile, or (and I am just noticing it now) the Xbox one profile that is in the list. If this reset isn't working the. We have a problem, and we will have to make sure the main development team looks into asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what your connection setup is, I am running a gigabit LAN so my connection may be better. But I have nil issues watching 1080p content at the highest settings.

Maudite Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Maybe its the server from your end then? Mine is definitely streaming perfectly Can you still play smoothly through IE? I haven't been able to do this since earlier this year. Emby used to work perfectly through the browser, but has not in quite some time for me. Strangely, a preview will play perfectly smooth, then when transcoding and a movie from my collection begin playing, it is terrible. I really wish I could go back to this until the app comes out, however the web interface does not render correctly on the X1 in the last several server revisions as well.

Audio Lomb Posted September 15, 2015 Author Share Posted September 15, 2015 I have never been able to play smoothly on my XBOX ONE's IE. It's a terrible experience. I am not using Emby at all on XBOX. DLNA works randomly but most of the times doesn't. I have paid for the lifetime license but I must say that I am very disappointed so far. Right now emby is not even running on my PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not good. When you say DLNA works randomly, what is it that doesn't work? Is it choppy playback? Or no media playback at all? Have you tried to change some of the setting which might help you transcode a stream over network easier? What are some of the bitrates for media items which don't transcode decently?
