Did you know that #CastLab is an open source app that lets you cast pictures, videos and audio to your TV?

It uses the #DLNA protocol and is designed to be easy to use without any technical knowledge. It automatically detects devices, and you can cast entire albums or create your own playlists.
Available on #FDroid and soon on #Altstore

Having recently installed @jellyfin instead of emby, I have to say: It's really fucking cool(*)!

(*) IFF you use a Jellyfin client (web, mobile). I did intall the DLNA plugin, but it's severely lacking compared to embys. Most annoyingly, it won't work properly with my IDontKnowHowOld Pioneer radio (emby worked fine).

Sooo, suggestions for a radio with:
- FM and DAB
- DLNA
- Small frame, must fit easily on an already crowded shelf
- Remote control
- (optional) Home Assistant

For some reason, I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole of #DLNA.

I’ve been tinkering with the idea of an off-grid setup for when electricity or internet is down and built around my GL.iNet Slate AX travel router.

Sure, it’s not #plex or #jellyfin but it’s close enough when it can be run for days/weeks off a battery bank.

Hoping that Sunday is a better day for asking #selfhosted support questions, cos I really want to get #jellyfin playing out of 'the big speakers' and I need #DLNA to do that.

My networking skills are weak I'm afraid so even just troubleshooting this issue is a challenge!

Quick Friday night #selfhosted #homelab help sought, please.

I've got @jellyfin #jellyfin running on a @yunohost server (and generally working pretty well) but I can't see my #DLNA endpoint from it (plugin installed and enabled etc). The endpoint is #GmediaRender on a Nanopi Neo and I can see (and play to) it from BubbleUpnP on my phone.

I think I might have to do some sort of 'hairpin nat' thing with my router, but my network skills are weak.

Can anyone set me in the right direction please?
