web browser and dlna devices remote from server

Hi Guys

 

I havent been able to find an answer on this and wondering if anyone knows

 

I have emby setup at home and it works great I can "cast" movies from my pc to any dlna device in the house via the web browser without any issues.

 

However

 

I have a friend who uses my server via the web browser and it is not picking up his LG smart TV which is on his network. Now is this normal? Do the devices only work if they are on the same network as the server?

 

Currently he has an LG smart TV and a PS3 but neither of these work with their native browsers to I thought it would just pass the stream off via his pc but have run into this issue.

 

Can anyone shed any light on this?

 

Thanks

Hi, welcome. 

 

Yes this is normal. The web browser all by itself has no way to detect the devices on his network.
