No playlist visible for DLNA client (controlled via web)?

[nonplus 1]

When controlling a DLNA client via Emby, I cannot queue or "play next". When I click these options, the music intended to be queued (I only tried with Music) starts to play immediately.

 

Also, when opening the "Remote control" for the DLNA client, no playlist is visible.

 

So my question is: is it intended behaviour that no playlist is available for DLNA clients that are controlled via web?  And that hence all playlist-related features are unavailable?

 

Thanks

Hi, support for this with Dlna is planned for a future release, thanks.

Hi Luke, any updates on this?

 

Thanks!

[Luke 40072]

It's being worked on and I'm hoping we'll have it in the next major release. Thanks.

In 3.6? This would be a killing feature!

 

Thanks.

Unfortunately not in the next release, but will be in the one after that. Thanks.

Hi, are there any improvements with this in the latest version of the server?

[Luke 40072]

Not yet but i'm hoping to get to it soon. Thanks.

I see Dlna 1.0.23 listed in the Emby Server 4.2.1 changelog. But I guess this doesn't mean that the issue of this thread is resolved?

[Luke 40072]

No, not yet, sorry.

Hi everyone,

 

I am rather new to EmBy, having been swayed by the DLNA-support (especially the option to control DLNA players from the server). Being able to see the playlist while casting would indeed be very valuable.

 

Are there any updates on the roadmap for this feature?

 

Many thanks

I have been using emby for about a year now and also purchased premium lifetime, love it!

Since i now also have DLNA speakers (Vifa Stockholm/Copenhagen 2.0) this is an issue i really struggle with. Good to know its not my fault in setting up things and i am not alone, a fix would be highly appreciated :)

Is there an update on this? This functionality would be really appreciated (DLNA works very snappy, but it just adds one song (on my Denon AVR at least) and plays it repeatedly. kinda kills the usability)  

[Luke 40072]

It's on my to do list. Thanks for the feedback.
