hi.. for some when i try to play video over the wan it just keeps turning the circle and nothing plays... the data is streaming in the background as i can see it being sent from the server and my mobile data is being used.

 

i am using https... works ok when local network.. takes long to start but it does start playing the video.

 

https works fine with web access and android apps. using trusted paid for certificate.

Mobile data?

 

You're talking about Emby Theater, right?

 

There may simply not be enough bandwidth available to effectively stream at whatever bitrate you are attempting it.

hi.. yes emby theatre... its not a bandwidth problem... i have fibre at home 100/40 Mbit/sec and my mobile data  i am testing with is getting at least 50 Mbit/sec down ... but as mentioned above it works fine with android app an web access

Could you try with 8096? Personally I've never been able to play from outside of my network with 8920...

 

but its works fine with port 8920 using web access and android apps ...  are you saying  emby theatre for windows wont work with the default port that is used for https ...  it logs in fine but just has playback issues as in my case?

I only tested from outside of my network on IOS with Safari. On my router I've got a routing rule from 8920 ext to 8920 int. I'm able to browse but if I launch a movie it throws an error.

i have no problems with browsers and android apps... this problem is just windows emby theatre desktop app and the windows store app (which the developer is happy to take peoples money but not ever fix problem)

so i am the only one with this problem ?  i thought if it works fine for web access and android apps then it has been setup correctly and should work with  emby theater desktop app ?
