Emby to JRiver Media Server for MP3 Files

I've been unsuccessful at getting a connection from Emby on a Samsung TV to local PC running JRiver Media Center.

The TV is a Samsung QN65QN85DDFXZA (2024 QLED TV running Tizen OS Version 8.0)

Media Center Version: 34.0.71 Registered

JRiver's media server is running on 192.168.1.10:52100 but Emby shows it as unavailable.

The mp3 player in the TV does see the media server, I believe via DLNA. The reason I'm not using it is because when loading a playlist it re-sorts the files alphabetically instead of maintaining the playlist order. Yuk!!!

I was hoping Emby would honor the playlist order, but, I can't get it connected. The JRiver Media Server logs shows the DLNA server is at that ip/port.

I guess my question is, is Emby known to work with the JRiver Media Center DLNA servers? If so, what's the trick?

Hi, Emby does not have a feature at this time to pull in content from other dlna servers. It's possible for the future though. It has come up before.

Would love to see this too. I have advanced smart playlists for both audio and images built on Jriver and would love to be able to play them in Emby. I too am having to play music via my TV's chunky UI to access my JRiver DNLA server.
