Recommended Posts

Hello guys,

 

I have a smart tv, that supports DLNA. So far i was using Tversity server, because its able to transcode, and show cyrilic subtitles correctly. Today i installed emby server, and i really like it, but i am not able to setup cyrilic subtitles to show correctly. Any support on this?

 

Also,

 

Because from Kodi, i am not able to cast any online movie to my tv (then i click cast to tv, it sends me back to menu), is it possible to use kodi to find the movie i want, add it to emby server, and browse it from tv using emby server?

Do the subtitles show correctly on the web client?  Did you select the appropriate language in the subtitle settings?  You might have more help with this in the windows server subforum.

 

 

This addon just makes it possible to keep the Kodi database in sync with the Emby server, so you can use Kodi like an Emby client.

The subtitles are showing as question mark and some undefined characters, regarding the settings i have option to download, and show macedonian language...

 

Also, if i use kodi as emby client, does that means embi will transcode movies from kodi? Because when i browse movies directly from TV, when i select kodi, i get unsupported format, and if i select emby, i can watch the movies transcoded from embi, but only local movies, not online...

@@ljubisa86 - have you installed the Emby for Kodi addon, or are you trying to use the Kodi database with Emby?

 

If the latter, then it won't work.

I have kodi and emby installed on pc. The idea that i want, is to be able to watch new released videos online on my tv, but because the tv is not android, i have to use some server, in order to stream... 

so my question was, how to watch online movies via emby or kodi on tv?

Emby will not play a stream coming from Kodi.

I'd try posting that question again in the windows server sub forum.
