Cast / PlayOn nvidia shield - jellyfin9r - 2025-02-09

hello guys,

i recently found out it's possible to cast / playon media to other devices.
my setup is pretty simple, i'm running jellyfin on docker in my internal network.

1x Android (Google Pixel)
1x iOS
1x Android TV (nvidia shield)

I want to use my pixel and jellyfin app to cast / playon my nvidia shield.
But my nvidia shield is not listed as device to cast / playon.

Can you help me with my configuration?

Thanks in advance

What network mode is the Jellyfin container using? Host networking? Bridge networking?

Also why casting instead of the native Android TV app?

Thanks for your reply.

It's operating on bridge networking. We also use the native app which works great.
Sometimes we'd like to cast music from our smartphone directly to the shield.

How is the container setup? What ports are you publishing? Can you share your docker compose?

For testing, comment out the "ports" section and add "network_mode: host". Restart the container and try to cast.
