Jellyfin DLNA Playback

What app is this about, and its version: Jellyfin 10.11.6~ynh1
What YunoHost version are you running: 13.0.4 (testing)
What type of hardware are you using: Old laptop or computer

Describe your issue

Despite having opened ports 1900 and 7359 in the yunohost firewall I can’t reach my DLNA endpoint from Jellyfin in Yunohost, the DLNA plugin is installed and all the enabling boxes are ticked.

I can see and play to the endpoint from various apps on my phone (Yatse / BubbleUpnP but not from Jellyfin (either from a browser or my phone).

Can anyone help me with what I might be missing to make it work, please?

N/A

I’m not even sure where to start with troubleshooting this, does anyone have Jellyfin working with DLNA in Yunohost?

Could you try to connect a dlna device and then check the Jellyfin logs?

Did you check DLNA | Jellyfin?

Thanks Tho,

Jellyfin doesn’t present as a DLNA endpoint, when I’ve used it previously outside of Yunohost, it ‘broadcasts’ DLNA but it’s not in itself an end point.

When I’ve used it before I’ve had a device (as I have now) with Gmediarender installed on it and it appears in the ‘play on’ button in Jellyfin. I know that device is working because other DLNA devices on my network (ie my phone) can see it and play music through it.

The plugin should be reading my network and showing my end point, but it’s not.

I’ve searched in the logs for ‘dlna’ and ‘1900’ (the port it works on) but there is no mention of either.

I’m wondering if it’s a ‘subnet’ thing (ie that Jellyfin, even on my local network is actually being piped over the external internet) I believe that would stop DLNA working (as it’s for local networks). Is there a way to tell Yunohost to provide jellyfin ‘locally’ for the local network, whilst still being available across the external internet?

Wondering if this might be a clue as to how to unpick this: Has Anyone Got the Jellyfin App Working on LAN with YunoHost? - #2 by wbk

Might also be why I can’t see the ‘picons’ from my TVHeadend server too?

I’m still keen to hear from anyone who can confirm they have a DLNA working in Yunohost Jellyfin?
