Hello
I have installed Kodi Nexus (from the Play Store) on my LG Android 5 phone, with a view to using the semi-retired phone as a media player/server device. The Kore client on my current (Android 6) phone is able to remotecontrol this Kodi server instance. So, that's a win. However, it would be even winnier if the Android 5 Nexus server could show up on the current phone's BubbleUPNP client as a "Renderer", so I could cast music from my current phone to the semi-retired phone. I am unable to persuade the planets to align so that this happens. Is it even possible? Has anyone in the history of History ever achieved this? I seem to have maximum permissivity in the Kodi server settings, but I don't know if there is something else I could be doing?
These unanswered questions seem to suggest that this is actually not possible:
Android - Why can't I cast to Kodi 20.1 on a FireTV?
Android Kodi as a Jukebox/Audio Receiver on Android
I also have a LibreELEC/Kodi Nexus Raspberry Pi 3B+, which shows up on the BubbleUPNP client on my current phone as a "Renderer", and I am able to cast both audio and video to this. (So many wins!) So I am being greedy. But it would be very nice to use the old LG's quite accomplished audio output for this. Can someone help me (and perhaps the other questioners?)
