If you want to run lbrynet on a different computer, you'll have to check that it is listening on all interfaces, e.g.
lbrynet start --api 0.0.0.0:5279
Then, you'll have to use the IP address of that computer in the URL of the API server, e.g.
http://laptop.address:5279
Sorry but I'm lost. I want to be able to download videos and also contribute to the lbry network because I don't like leaching bandwidth all the time. My understanding from reading issues in this repo and elsewhere is I have to get lbrynet working by installing it on a PC connected to the same LAN. Is this correct? If so, I downloaded it to my Linux laptop, ran it in the terminal, changed the API server from https://api.na-backend.odysee.com/api/v1/proxy to http://localhost:5279 in the addon but whenever I click on "Followed Channel" it says API error.
Does lbrynet have to be installed on the Raspberry Pi? If so, I transferred the zip to my LibreELEC samba share and extracted it but nothing happens when I click on it.
Any help is appreciate. Thanks.
EDIT: I'm also trying to get help in a different thread. Might be more updated info there.
