Sharp Aquos TV

[techworld 3]

Hi guys,

 

I'm recently migrated from Plex to Emby.

I'm currently testing Emby see if it suits my needs.

 

I notice that Emby use more RAM and CPU compare to Plex.

My actual issue is that my Music and Videos files are displayed length 0:00 on my TV.

The media files are played fine though.

However, it displayed fine on Plex Media.

 

I'm currently using default settings on Emby.

The issue isn't so much the server but we probably need to learn about sharp tv's. we don't currently have a dlna profile for them, so it's going to use the default profile which will transcode a lot.  We haven't really had someone with a sharp come forward to help build a profile.

Ok, I see.

Does each smart TV needs a DLNA profile for Emby to play/view properly?

I'm using Plex, and there's no DLNA profile set up in the server, but it working fine.

Yes each device has/needs it own profile.  And Plex has built in profiles for each device just like Emby.

I just created my a profile for my Sharp Aquos TV, and it's working

Where do I put this at in Emby?

well done! if you post it here we can take a look at it and hopefully include it in the next version of the server.

It would be convenience if I can see the device's activities in the web gui.

 

Edit: I created the profile, but I don't see Emby detecting my TV at all.

Media are playing, but videos are auto skip after 20 minutes.

If anybody have time, and knowledge, please take a look.

 

Issues:

--Can't fast forward any media.

--Media files are display length 0:00.

Well I've got a Sharp AQUOS LC-80LE940X, I'm using the Sharp_Aquos_LE755U.xml from member techworld above

 

Emby debug is reporting the same DLNADOC/1.50 SHARP-AQUOS-DMP/2.0W HTTP header.

 

I've copied the XML file to C:\Users\ME\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\config\dlna\user and will see if DLNA works properly.

 

The TV searches for and detects the Emby Server but it doesn't show any of the movie images, only folders.
