PBzeer 6 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I'm experimenting with running the server on a different pc, and assume it's not a problem to leave the original, as long as it's not running (disabled run at startup as well). Once I'm satisfied that's the way I want to go, then I'll unistall the original. Just wanted to check that it wouldn't create a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 You can run both, just set them up on different ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBzeer 6 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Don't need to run both, just didn't want to uninstall (and then have to reinstall, it tends to screw up my sort titles) before I was sure that's what I wanted to do. Thanks for the info though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidman 589 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 If they are on different machines you don't need to use different ports btw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deihmos 147 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 If they are on different machines you don't need to use different ports btw Yes you do. You can't forward one port to multiple machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2493 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) But if you want to access both externally then you should Edit, beat me to it Edited July 7, 2015 by Spaceboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBzeer 6 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 As I said, only going to have one running at a time. Just wanted to be sure it wouldn't create a conflict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidman 589 Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Yes you do. You can't forward one port to multiple machines.Sure if you need to have remote access to both servers at the same time, but if you read the ops post that was not a requirementEdit: even then it should not be nessasary as you would need to forward two external ports anyway so you could forward each one to 8096 of each machines ip Edited July 8, 2015 by Vidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution deepseth 10 Posted July 8, 2015 Solution Share Posted July 8, 2015 Running this on different machines on the same LAN isn't an issue. If it was, it would suck in shared households where multiple people want to run their own Emby instances with their own media collections. As everyone else has already noted, different external ports would be required for port forwarding for multiple simultaneous, but that's no different to any other service, and not something you're interested in doing anyway. FWIW, I've got two Emby instances and three Plex instances running on the same LAN right now. No problems. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
