Streaming to other devices or access via network is not supported currently as it's a lot of work to implement. You can cast to other devices as an alternative.

Hmm thanks well to some extent I got access to webui via my iPad but the server gets an error and says waiting for websocket. Unfortunately can’t exactly cast because the raspi is cli only. Any idea for similar projects instead?

The Web UI is expecting the server to be run on the same device. It won't work currently since there's simply no transcoding/streaming feature to make the app functional on other devices.

Any idea for similar projects instead?

Plex and Jellyfin both support media transcoding and streaming to multiple devices, though the setup might be more complex (I've never used them for that reason). Hope this helps.
