Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi Luke i just checked vlc streaming settings and the local address was not set properly, so now when i play movie i click external player and vlc loads movie, But still have issue selecting menu to play movie and no sound on movie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 in vlc player under setings then stream it asks for network address, this is where i put my local ip for server Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 an example of my local ip ? http://192.222.0.111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 i mean an example of the url to the iso file that enter into vlc are you saying you've mounted your own http server? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 sorry i am getting confused here do you mean the path subsitution ? \\HTPC\Kids Movies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 at a basic level, what exact method are you using to play an iso in vlc directly (without emby)? thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 sorry had to pop out for a bit, the way i have been playing my iso on phone is by copying them from pc to phones ssd card and playing from there using either file explorer or vlc to play. I never set up to stream over network with vlc as i thought emby with the app would be much easier. if i need more movies on phone i would just convert them to mp4 for my grandson to watch but when i built new htpc ithought emby would take care of that with the app to save converting all my movies again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Ok, I was able to test this by sending an iso through the http server directly to vlc. I don't think this is going to work because in order to examine the contents of the iso, Vlc needs full access to the entire iso file, and not just an http stream.

Luke 37071 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 What we could do is allow ISO's to be synced in full with the sync feature. Would that help? Then you can open it with vlc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 ohhh so does that means the only way is to convert all movies to mp4 to watch on phone with emby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Or I can update the sync feature to sync the full iso down to the phone, and then use the external player function to open it with vlc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianmcw 0 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 to sync the full iso would just ake up a lot of space on phone is this correct? if so i would be better looking into another option just to stream the movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37071 Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 I'm not aware of any option that streams the contents of ISO's. It's just not an easy thing to do. If you're willing to convert to video files, then we'll have no trouble streaming them to your grandson's device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ianmcw 0 Posted March 11, 2016 Author Share Posted March 11, 2016 sorry been out of town for last week, looks like this is only option available but now i will have copy's of same movies and will clutter up MBC gonna have to figure out best way to separate them so still playable as iso on htpc and mp4 for streaming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
