I have been an Emby user for many, many years. But I am now stumped. I have Emby Server running on a Win11 PC. An Amazon Firestick is used to access the media files. Three weeks ago it worked fine. This week I cannot access the PC. The FStick can access my sons PC (5 miles away) via Internet. My Samsung Tablet (2018) can still access server. I am being plagued by Emby on the Fstick insisting on using "Connect" If I try manually entering IP address I just get in a loop - server not found. I never used "Connect" to set up the system. I have cleared FStick Cache etc - no cure. Reinstalled the App - no change. I've checked all the Server settings. Private Network, ensured Port 80 is added. Even added SMB1 ( an old Synology needed this ). All to no avail. One thing that has thrown me is that I originally logged in with a User Name {FirstName_Surname}. "Connect" insists on an email address and then forces me use a Pin - that does nothing to get access. Just loops - enter IP address, Server not found, Connect - rinse and repeat. I am at a loss which bit of kit is failing - PC or FStick. Any suggestions ? Jim.

Never seen it, or it was there in the past, and now it is not? I'm a bit confused now

The genres of an album are a combination of all of the genres of the songs on the album. So if you just make sure the genres on the songs are correct, then the album genres will take care of themselves.

But there were no changes from Samsung regarding Emby? I've never seen the app unavailable on a Samsung TV. Or perhaps there's an update happening. Just like what happened with LG TVs a month ago.

Hi, yes that is the goal, so stay tuned. Thanks.

@TONYCINEXINis it possible that the network sharing is consuming bandwidth, and therefore you need to lower the quality setting in the Emby app to reduce the bitrate?

Nope, just the new. The Internal disk is still connected but it's not "shared"

Okay. I'll try that.

I would check the TV's date, region and timezone settings to make sure they are configured correctly. Also if their network is using a VPN then try turning it off.

hi, please try removing these plugins: 2026-03-14 14:49:23.841 Info App: Loading playback_reporting, Version=2.1.0.7, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/plugins/playback_reporting.dll 2026-03-14 14:49:23.842 Info App: Loading Emby.DataExplorer2, Version=4.9.1.13, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/plugins/Emby.DataExplorer2.dll 2026-03-14 14:49:23.842 Info App: Loading statistics, Version=3.4.2.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/plugins/Statistics.dll 2026-03-14 14:49:23.842 Info App: Loading MediaBrowser.Plugins.TuneIn, Version=1.2.8.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null from /var/packages/EmbyServer/var/plugins/MediaBrowser.Plugins.TuneIn.dll Then restart the server and see how things compare. Thanks.

México And there were four people. With four different Samsung TVs.

Hi, no update yet but hopefully soon. Thanks.

Hi, no update yet but hopefully soon. Thanks.

Hi, what do you see in emby library setup?

Are the old paths showing in emby library setup?

Hi, it is available. What country are they in?

Hi, what permissions are you referring to?

hi, thanks for following up.

hi, the path can be configured in advanced server settings.

Hi. Can you try searching for our standard android app (Just "Emby" on Amazon and "Emby for Android on Google) on the same device's app store and see how that compares? Thanks.

Hi, when transcoding, the HLS protocol is used and this can't hold opus.

OK yes I agree it makes sense to scan all versions. Thanks.

Hi, not yet, sorry.

Any news about this topic? @Luke
