RE: Set content over UPNP?? - LongMan - 2021-11-26

@psrkallez06,
MediaImport is a feature that allows an instance of Kodi to act as a client which can import media items from a media server. Servers that are currently supported are
  • Another Kodi Instance (via UPnP)
  • Emby and/or Jellyfin Server
  • Plex Server
In your case you will be using the main machine as your server.

Before trying this out, use the LibreELEC backup feature to backup your install (Settings>LibreELEC>System>Create System and Kodi Backup)

Install this build on the both machines. It is compiled by me and based on LibreELEC 10.01 and Kodi 19.3 + MediaImport.
If your current install is LibreELEC 10 just upgrade, if it is LibreELEC 9, the advice from the LibreELEC Team is a clean install.

You may need to rescan your library.

For UPnP Sharing,
Settings>Services>UPnP/DNLA  Enable UPnP Support  (Both Machines)
and Import media items from UPnP Servers - Enabled  (Client)

Then add your imports
Settings>Media Sources (Client)

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - psrkallez06 - 2021-11-26

@LongMan 

Yes thank you very much, will report back after i have tried it!

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - psrkallez06 - 2021-11-26

@LongMan so i have it installed on both machines, followed your intructions. When i click Media sources > all media providers, the list it empty. any ideas?

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - LongMan - 2021-11-26

Settings>Services>UPnP/DNLA  Enable UPnP Support  (Both Machines)
and Import media items from UPnP Servers - Enabled  (Client)

These two steps? The client should respond as soon as you enable

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - psrkallez06 - 2021-11-26

Yes. But the list is empty..

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - psrkallez06 - 2021-11-26

Where do i add that?

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - LongMan - 2021-11-26

Just check that you have the same values under Settings>Services>UPnP/DLNA. These are from guisettings file but you are not making changes there, make the changes on the settings page. The names are similar to the settings listed

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - psrkallez06 - 2021-11-26

Double checked. I have the same settings as above on both my devices, restarted multiple times. But the media providers list is still empty.. Any more ideas? Smile

RE: Set content over UPNP?? - LongMan - 2021-11-26

And the are on the same network? I assume you can see the other machine over regular UPnP
