Chromecast + Osmc

Hi again,

Let me rephrase the issue being more specific with my questions. To solve the issue here the options I found googling on this forum and others.

  1. The easiest solution seems to be internal kodi dlna service. But it does not seem to support transcoding. Am I correct?

  2. Use kodi internal dlna server and enabling transcoding on bubblenpn client on my phone. It is too slow. Is this normal? Is there a way to improve performance?

  3. Use external dlna server like minidlna. Does it support transcoding? I was unable to find this info so far.

  4. Use bubblepn server that seems to have trancoding and it should interface well with client. But here it’s not clear to me what is a bubblepn server. Is it another dlna server? What’s the difference with minidlna and kodi internal dlna server?

  5. Do not use transcoding at all and convert the video manuale using ffmpeg. Obviously this option is simple but require work for each movie. However, what is the target format/codec I should use between the one supporter by chromecast and why.

Thx in advance for your help.
