Wow! That's cool. Lol. Player and server.

It connected immediately. When I was setting it up it appeared that I would be able to pass my Emby server to what connected to it, but when I connected with Bigscreen, I did not see Emby or any of its folders.

I'll have to study it a bit to determine what is and what is not possible with it. Looks like it just grabs all media on the phone without me being able to control where it gets it from.

OK I can compare bubble's server responses to ours. That may or may not lead to anything though because they probably vary the responses depending on what it's coming from.

Sure, I want this to work more than you do! :-).
I loaded the dll's into both system and programdata's plugin folders and fired up the server with no libraries. Bigscreen connected with "No supported videos to show in this folder" message. (around 19:06). Then I added an empty movie library and tried to connect with Bigscreen (around 18:09). All I got was the spinning wheel. I added a movie to the empty Movie library, scanned it, and tried to connect to Bigscreen again. I got the spinning wheel again.

Can you please attach the server log from this last test? Thanks.

Big Progress!!! 🙂
Procedure the same. First step was the same (around 23:01).
In the second step, Bigscreen was able to connect and see the empty Movies library folder !! (around 23:03).
On the third step, I was able to connect and see the Movies Library, but when I clicked it, all I got was a spinning wheel (around 23:07).
The movie file I am using is only 300M

It Works!!!!!!!!!
Yes!!, I am soooooooo Happy 🙂
Emby was one of the main reasons I got my headset!

Once it connected and I started playing the video I had been using as a test, the play progress bar was counting, but I had a black picture and no sound. I added another video and that one played fine.
Attached is the log.

Again, thanks Luke!

When will this update be available?

Big Screen DLNA support with Emby Server is resolved in the Emby DLNA plugin version 1.1.4+. Thanks !
