JF 10.9.11 cant play on with DLNA plugin

[34626]

I have Jellyfin 10.9.11 running in docker, and just noticed why DLNA did not work.. So i got the plugin installed for DLNA and opened port 1900 in my docker-compose.yml file, but i am still not able to play to a devices on the network?

In my docker-compose.yml file, i have set network mode as bridge because either "host" "'host'" wont work, but it could be this that is the issue.

I want to play to from Android Jellyfin client and to Jellyfin media player and also Jellyfin media player to jellyfin media player, but i dont know why it dosent work?

You need to use host networking for DLNA to work. DLNA broadcasts on the subnet the server is on, meaning only other containers will see the DLNA broadcast and not your LAN devices. When you say that host networking doesn't work, what does that mean? The container won't start? Or Jellyfin is inaccessible?

Also, what DLNA devices are you trying to play to? You mentioned that your JMP and Android clients don't work. You don't need DLNA for official Jellyfin clients.

What IP are you using to try to access Jellyfin? Can you share docker compose for Jellyfin?

When i use 'host' and not bridge, i get these errors:

Comment out the "ports" section in your compose file since those aren't necessary when using host networking.

Thanks, that fixed the starting up issie with the docker container :-D

But i dont seem to be able to play content on diffrent devices in the home?
I have tried the Jellyfin app for Android, both smartphone and tablet and Jellyfin Media Player, both client fromeach 2 devices, but none of the four devices can play to each other?

What do you mean "play to each other"? As in phone to tablet via DLNA?

AFAIK, none of our clients can become DLNA targets. Anyone feel free to correct me.

Yes, thats what i mean. I have been able to start a movie on my smartphone and play on my TV which has a pc with Jellyfin Media Player connected,but now i amnot able to do this anymore.. - I was also able to play content on tablets, smartphones, PC and so on..
