DLNA outside my home network

[Slimo 0]

Hello,

First of all thank you for all the answers I found on this forum ( permissions on ubuntu, creating users, KODI integration and much more .. )

 

I am trying to use the DLNA feature of the EMBY app on my android phone outside of my network.
I want to watch my movie on my friends smart TV.

 

When I am on my home network (same network as my EMBY server) I click on the cast button on my emby app, I can see my other DLNA devices and stream the content.

But when I go to my friends house, connect to his WIFI , start the application, I click on the cast button and I see the DLNA devices of my house not the DLNA of my friend.

What am I doing wrong ?

 

Thank you for your help.

 

Slim.

Hi, dlna devices on external networks are not implemented yet, sorry.

Hi, dlna devices on external networks are not implemented yet, sorry.

 

Is that even possible?

 

That would require one of those:

1. His android phone intermediate the streaming and act as a DLNA providor in his friend's network.

2. His friend's network is connected with his network.

 

AFAIK, DLNA protocol applies to the same network.

Anyone knows different?

Your phone would have to be on his wifi network.

Is there an ETA for this feature?  Thanks in advance
