Hello,
Is there a way to install this on LibreELEC (Ie as an add-on?) I wish to use a bubbleUPnP server on LE but don't know how. Thanks.

I responded to your email last week @jackojmi 🤷‍♂️

Oh- I never got the email.

I hope it’s OK to contact you. I found your email and script (https://gist.github.com/qguv/6f76e4e8178e8398b66a6da3780acc65) on github, and am trying to get it running on my LibreELEC machine.

Java is my issue! I’m wondering if/how you were able to install Java. Please forgive my low knowledge of Linux!

Thanks for reaching out :)

The gist you mentioned installs a portable installation of the Java 1.8 runtime environment called zulu by pulling it directly from the website of the zulu-embedded project.

It then simply downloads and extracts the bubbleUPNP files from the bubbleUPNP site.

I did eventually get it working but I didn't end up liking the workflow so much; I'm considering switching to jellyfin.org instead, which I've heard has better streaming support. I was looking for a sort of "self-hosted Netflix" that I can just log into from a remote PC.

The script in the gist can also just be executed line-by-line in a shell. You can skip the checksum verification steps by clearing out the checksum variables; this was just to check whether the files downloaded correctly. The files may have been updated since I made the script, which would mean the checksums would also need to be updated.

Hope that helps!

Thanks, appreciate it!! Will try to get working!!
