My mother uses a roku and remotely connects to my server from house A. She mow rented an apartment closer to me (live 500 miles apart) but without internet (she's cheap). So last fall I had her bring up her roku and I set her up at her apartment with a nuc running emby server on Debian, connected to an old router, that's wireless connected to roku via wifi. Problem I had was roku wouldn't connect bc it detected no internet connection. I ultimately got it working somehow but now she's gone and come back and brought her roku again. But she had it connected to her other wifi at her house. So now it won't connect to the internetless-apartment router. I thought maybe I had bridged the router to my phone while my phone was a Hotspot so the router had internet access, just to connect the roku to the router successfully then afterwards it was good for months. But that's not working either. Maybe there was an update to the emby app or roku?

Just a little feedback on my initial experiments with 4K playback using the Emby LG app. I'm finding some 4K content works and some doesn't. 'Sully' 4K for instance will not play on the Emby LG App. It will play on the LG Plex app. Same results for 'Jigsaw' and 'It'. I'm playing UHD rips from my 4K blu-rays made using makemkv. That being said, where files do play I am noticing quality degradation. 'Argo' for instance streamed via the LG app looks terrible (however the server does say it's direct playing). 'Argo' streamed via DNLA to my UHD blu-ray player looks far, far better and as per the disc. So as it stands, if I want to watch 4K rips using Emby, the LG app is not up to the job. This may in part also be due to the TV itself. DNLA to the TV also results in reduced quality (however all files do manage to at least play, same as Plex). There could also be bandwidth issues involved. The LG TV does not have a gigabit LAN port. To sum up, the only way for me to get the true 4K (exactly as per the disc) is to stream using my phone or iPad via DNLA to my Oppo UDP203 and then HDMI into the TV. TL:DN Emby LG app plays some 4K (albeit in reduced quality. Plex LG app plays all 4K (albeit in reduced quality).

Hello, Environment: Emby Server 4.7.13.0 Emby for Android 3.3.07 Android 13 Premiere enabled What is working: Usage internally: wifi and wired connections in the same LAN as the server. Smartphone, PC, TV, even my car with Android Auto through smartphone. Usage externally: data connection through my router/firewall, no problem with my ISP either. Smartphone, car with android auto, other WAN connections. What is not working: Starting to play playlist inside the LAN and continue after going out, either on smartphone or through Android Auto. I set up Emby behind an apache proxy to ease certificates, DNS and network flows management through firewall, but I guess it's not the source of the issue. Internally and externally Emby is reachable through a unique name (eg. emby.myfancydomain.com) and HTTPS/443. As the proxy is doing the routing job, all Emby network config is left by default, proxy falling back on 8096 HTTP default port, this is maybe the problem but I don't know which parameter to correct, I did several tests without solving. Testing with local terminal DNS cache is instantly discarded and get the public IP, but I need to restart the app to make it works, so I loose the playlist state on smartphone. With Android auto it's even worse, I can't restart with the Android auto interface, I need to disconnect the smartphone from the car, restart the app and then reconnect to the car... And of course loosing the playlist and song state. Fun fact, the reverse action works well, but I don't know if my data connection is still active or if the app switch better when started outside my network and then come back to home. Thanks in advance, Leahkim

Impossibile stabilire connessione ad emby tramite app tradue lan in VP
ramellanzini posted a topic in Italian
Buongiorno a tutti! Ho un problema con il mio serer emby. Ho attuamente due connettività (casa e casa vacanze) accoppiate tra loro con due Fritz Box (accoppiamento lan tramite vpn) La situazione è la seguente, lan 1 (connettività principale)192.168.1.x lan 2 192.168.2.x con il server emby posizionato su 192.168.1.xx Se dall'esterno mi collego in vpn alla connettività principale (dove si trova fisiamnete la macchina su cui è installato emby) riseco ad aprire senza problemi l'app (in quanto il disositivo connesso in vpn risulta avere un insirizzo 192.168.1.x se però provo a spostarmi nella connettività accoppiata alla lan principale l'app non siesce a connettersi, da browser invece anche sotto la connettività secondaria (192.168.2.x) mi basta digitare l'ip del server emby (192.168.1.x) e riesco a visualizzatre tutto tranquillamente. Sapete per caso quale può essere il problema? Grazie a tutti i nanticipo. -

Buenas tardes, tengo un problema con Emby, ya lo he configurado con las películas y todo, el caso es que al momento de funcionar en mi red local (Dentro de casa) las películas se pausan cada 10 o 15 segundos, (las películas que tengo son a 1920 x 1080 en formato MKV) al parecer la conexión a internet por el tema de cuarentena está un poco deficiente tengo una conexión de IPS Claro a 30 Mbps, soy de perú, pienso que debería ser suficiente para 4 clientes, intenté conectar solo un cliente, pensando que la cantidad de clientes era demasiado y sucede lo mismo, hasta que intenté algo: desconecté el internet del router, así que el router solo funcionó como un switch, realmente estrabajando en una red local y ahí no tuve problemas en reproducir contenido aún con los 4 clientes conectados y reproduciendo películas simultaneamente (sin internet), pero al volver a conectar el internet sucede lo mismo vuelve a pausarse Mi pregunta es, como hago para que Emby utilize solo la red local (como si no tuviera internet) para todos los dispositivos que estén dentro de mi red local (2 computadoras y 2 televisores), cuando vuelva a conectar el internet. también he estado probando esto y no funciona: rango de IP 192.168.0.1 - 192.168.0.254 Mascara de subred 255.255.255.0 Desde ya gracias por su ayuda

Being able to use names in addition to IP addresses when we configure which networks are local
Enrique1980 posted a topic in Feature Requests
I wish I could put DNS names in addition to IP addresses in the "local networks" field If that was possible, I could put the name "dyndns.net" from another address (my beach house). My Internet provider assigns me an IP address that changes frequently. Now I put (for example): "192.168.1.0/24, 52.41.151.131", but the address of my beach house "52.41.151.131" I have to change it frequently. I would like to put something like "192.168.1.0/24, mysecondhouse.dyndns.net" Thank you -
Good morning! I saw two threads discussing this, but didn't see a conclusion to them yet (for one the last reply was from over an year ago, so I'm hoping it's been updated since then). I recently transitioned my Emby server from my PC to my Nvidia Shield. I have my media on an external hard drive that is directly connected to the Shield (I don't have a NAS yet). Although I don't mind having the Shield running all the time, I didn't want my external hard drives to be continuously running, so I have it currently set for them to shut off when the Shield goes to sleep. However, I did notice when I did that, I was no longer able to access the Emby Server. I tried the Wake Server option, and I get the following message: "Wake On LAN packets were sent to your server machine, but we're unable to connect to your Emby Server. Your machine may need a little more time to wake, or Emby Server may not be actively running on the machine." Am I doing something wrong, or does Android not have a WOL option?

Hello all, Has anyone else run into issues with playback when off your local network? I have had users reporting this recently (I believe only since updating to server v4.x) and have not had any luck in resolving it, I have tried adjusting the transcoding options, and even turning it off. I have also had the users try using much lower quality settings on their end. It all made no difference. Users are trying to playback files using various methods and it is always them same. While on my LAN, everything runs smooth as butter though. Would love to get some help trying to troubleshoot this. Thanks! N

Hi Guys, I've recently ran into a little snag when using Emby / Plex. (I was using Plex before but decided to move over to Emby) It seems to be an incredibly specific issue and from what I can tell, it may be to do with my router, but I just wanted to throw this out there and see what other people think. So up until recently I've been able to run my Plex/Emby server from my QNAP with no issues. I was able to stream locally to my Android TV, local computers, iPhones etc. All working perfectly. I was even able to access my media remotely due to the port forwarding I've got set up on my BT router. Then out of nowhere, I'm unable to access my media on my iOS devices. Just flat out doesn't work. With Plex, I was getting a redirected connection (because Plex acts as a middleman if your direct connection dies) but Emby just wouldn't see my server at all. Needless to say I was confused as nothing has changed. After some digging and testing I was able to see that I can still access my media on local machines and my TV, but only able to access my media remotely on iOS devices (or if my iOS device is routed through a VPN). So, I logged on to my router and killed my port forward. I was instantly able to access my media on my iOS devices locally. I put the port forward back on and I can no longer access my media on my iOS device locally. From the looks of things, if I add a port forward (which I've done countless times) the port stops working locally (for iOS devices) I can still access it through the browser etc... Needless to say, I'm baffled and I was wondering if someone here has come across a similar problem before. I've even tested setting up a new Emby server on my mac. Works perfectly locally for iOS devices, then when I add the port forward, stops working locally. Any thoughts or ideas? I'd be interested to know. Thanks guys.

Hi, I've discovered today Emby and I'm trying to configure it on an old lapop with Ubuntu Mate. I've the server up, working and tested with other laptops on the same LAN. But I've noticed a problem, on Windows the server appears on "Network" as a "Multimedia Device". That's not the problem, the problem it's that if double click on it, I can enter on the library folder, or If I go to "Properties" and clic on the URL (for example): 192.168.0.13:8091, I open the web interface on and automatically logs with my server user with all access. My question it's how I can set a login screen when someone wants to enter on the server, even if it's me from other laptop. I have my admin account linked with Emby Connect, I don't know if this detail helps with my problem. Regards EDIT 1: Ok, searching a bit more on this forum I've found this thread: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/59893-require-pin-for-accessing-user-accounts/ and on a comment: Hi. If you want to be able to switch between users (accounts) on the same app, then you don't want to use Emby Connect. Connect is designed as an easy way to directly connect an app/device to a single user without having to know/type in the server address and credentials for the user. If you want to have two accounts with different access, then you want to create two normal accounts on the server (not by email address), setup their access and passwords how you like, and then any local device should automatically find your server and present those two users as options at log-in. Please let us know if this answers your question. Thanks. So, my first problem to ask for login it's solved. But I'm still able to access the folder via "Network" as the server it's listed as a "Multimedia Device" and if I do double click, I enter on the folder and see all the downloads. How I can restrict the folder of the library on the LAN?

Hi, I have little problem with my Emby plugin for Kodi. The plugin works very well but when I start Kodi I must each time rewrite the address of my Emby server because Kodi put my LAN address server. I put my log on this thread. In the log you can see that the connection with LAN address not working and after I change this address for the real server address and it's working. Thanks ! Thibaut P.S : I change my real server address with http://MYSERVERADDRESS

Hi, I've set up my Emby-server with "HTTPS using reverse proxy" using the "Setting up SSL for Emby (WIP)" guide. My question is: How can I switch between my LAN IP-address 192.168.1.20:8096 if I'm at home and my https: // emby.domainname.com:443 address if I'm on the road (using the Android-app)? Manually adding the other address for the same server doesn't seem to work? Thanks!

There is wrong local network address in the Dashboard, the local address is the the same as the public ip-address. I've attached a screenshot. I would like to have an option to explicitly specify network interfaces to whom Emby should bind. As well as ability to completely disable binding to unnecessary interfaces.

Hello, I just reinstall my Win10 and reinstall Emby. I put my share located on a synolgy, scan the library, all is ok. I test a movie it play fine. So i decided like always to start Emby by Services in automatic mode. Then no library access anymore, i have administration interface but scanning library is broken, no browsing movie, no picture. I restart Emby with AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\System\MediaBrowser.ServerApplication.exe All is ok again.... So starting Emby with services broke library Access. Any idea ? Thanks server-63588572737.txt

HI, I have a curious question. My synology NAS is offline due to failed HDD, so I setup a server2 user account on my windows office PC, and use this as the server for a smaller selection of movies and tv shows that are backed up on this pc to my main htpc rig in the living room. I shut down the emby server on my htpc and let emby connect to the office pc.These are both on the same gigabit lan. The htpc when using the emby server would be the local host and all material was situated on my synology nas, would direct stream everything. However, now while using the server of the office pc, and it's "server2" user account, all files are being transcoded before being received via the htpc. Is there a setting I am missing, or should I set up the "server2" user account on the htpc, and let it act as server and client with the office pc being the "dumb" server? Anybody understand what I am trying to say...kind of confusing isn't it? Just wanting to know if I set it up ass backwards...boy I miss my NAS....anybody got a spare 5tb hdd so I can rebuild my raid? Cheers

I've successfully installed the mb3 server, classic (xbox360) and roku versions, but am stuck trying to get the Android client (beta 14, or RC2.1) to log in. I keep getting "Could not connect to library." I've typed in the name of the pc, and the router IP address, and port 8096 seems to be open, and there seem to be rules for the mb3 server in the firewall. Have I missed something obvious? Perhaps a detailed set-up tutorial would help? Do changes to the firewall rules need to be made? Why doesn't the android client "see" the LAN automatically, especially since the phone is already logged into wifi? Do I need to change a setting in server to look for the android client? Running mb3 server on Win7 Pro x64. Running mb3 android on Verizon Moto Droid Razr android 4.1.2.
