Windows mobile 10 Emby theater App not working

[tomdh76 1]

Hello,

 

I have a windows 10 surface pro 4 where the emby theater app is working fine. I also have a lumia 950 in which the emby theater does not play movies. I can browse through movies but when I start a movie a black screen is displayed. Interestingly, in the server dashboard it shows that the phone is playing the movie (direct stream --/-- / time of movie). When I use the browser in the phone I can play movies (by transcoding) and i also can cast the movie to the emby theater app....

Thx

Any news on this? Something has changed because now I see in the dashboard: transcoding (.. fps)  ...mkv h264 ac 3 but still a black windows mobile screen

Please try again with the latest version of the app. Thanks.

It is still not working. I found out that if I connect through wifi nothing happens but when I only connect through 4G I have video but no audio... The server manager shows also different things; either direct playing (4G) or direct streaming (wifi).

 

or direct

Any news on this? Interesting is that the trailers do work but the main movie remains blank...

Any news on this? the 5 of us that have windows mobile would like it to work - Running the app just gives a black screen, no menu ever appears.

Where exactly is the black screen?

Right when it starts before ANYTHING happens, it was all I got. Today an update came down for emby theater and it works fine now. Lumia 950. Thanks
