shocker 112 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hello, I've been testing emby with a Roku Streaming Stick+ and sending messages from the server is not possible. Basically the message is not shown. Is this a known issue? Also forcing direct-stream from the server, some subtitles are starting with 1-2s delay. Thanks!

Hi, what, exactly do you mean by "Not possible"? Is the option not available or nothing happens when you do it or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the option, I can send the message but nothing happens on the roku device. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Hi. I just tested this and it worked fine. Where are you in the app? Is the user remote or local? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shocker 112 Posted January 29, 2018 Author Share Posted January 29, 2018 (edited) During a movie play. It's the server admin user (local with emby connect). I will test in the library in a few min Edited January 29, 2018 by shocker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 The method of sending messages we're using can be fragile and prone to the roku closing the connection. We will need to supplement this with cloud based push notifications in order to ensure it will work all of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdiesel 1113 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Also I don't believe it works on out of network Rokus. Possibly if the correct ports are forwarded on the Roku's network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37022 Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Right, I think for now it just won't work in all situations. Push notifications are going to be the only way to make it just work all of the time, well assuming an internet connection at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nisten 15 Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 (edited) Tried this on a Roku 2 (in network) while using the Message Icon on the Emby Dashboard in the Android App but nothing actually displayed on-screen for the roku Edited February 5, 2018 by Nisten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
