MBSki 1009 Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 I can't switch to a different server in the web app anymore. I think it used to be in between these 2 options. @Luke Can you put the Change server option back or update the local servers so we can change the server? I see all the other apps have the new menu, but the new menu isn't on the local servers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimReaper 3269 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 I'm unclear how would you change servers if you're directly connecting to local IP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I said local IP, I was referring to the Emby Web App that I'm using. So I go to x.x.x.x:8096 instead of app.emby.tv. It's the same view, but a different version. Make sense?

GrimReaper 3269 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Yeah, how can server at x.x.x.x:8096 know there's another somewhere at y.y.y.y:zzzz? It does not sniff your network, you're connecting only to that server via IP in the address bar, whereas EmbyConnect is "aware" of all your servers, hence the Choose Server dialog presented. Edit: Just put Bookmark to the other server in your browser's toolbar, it'll take you there faster.

MBSki 1009 Posted October 14, 2021 Author Share Posted October 14, 2021 I'm fairly certain I've always been able to change servers regardless of how I connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6766 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Have the Server Settings finally been "hidden". Hopefully this will roll-out to the ET and ETC for Android (TV) app. Thanks @Luke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that server isn't available at the moment, the login just fails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The user manually adds server(s) details through the client, and the client remembers the server(s) details the user added. There's no big mystery to solve.

Yes, in the web app. On android app Settings goes to the full list of settings and Manage Emby Server is just the dashboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're getting OT, we all know how clients work, this is strictly related to Web App "Change server" option when connected locally via IP:port and not through app.emby.media. Can someone share a screenshot of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always willing to learn something new, but as stated before, I don't see how would that be possible not do I remember it ever being. Which doesn't mean I'm right.
