this has happened a few times.  I'd post a log, but since I come upon the issue, dunno what day log to post.

The "remember me" is ticked.

TCL/Roku TV.  Doesn't seem to be an issue with Android app.

in any case, it happens randomly.  I have to password back into the (local WiFi) server.

Hi.  Exactly where?

Thanks for that.

Is it possible that your server is temporarily not reachable when you are forced to re-login?

Exactly what happens in this case?

don't think so.  the server Mac is 24/7 connected to the interwebs.

is there something I should check?

I had to re-log-in to post that snap.

launch emby on the TV.  It asks me to log into the server. I pick my user name, enter my pw.

is that what you mean?

Yes, that's what I meant.  That sequence of events sounds like the app was unable to reach your server when it tried to logon automatically.

Your server log is filled with these:

Are you running some sort of proxy?

none that I set up or see in Network prefs.  Nothing I did or see in the router.

I see Port Mapper was updated on the Emby Server dashboard 5.7.22.

Anywhere else I should look?

Another possibility - do you ever select the "Sign out" option when exiting the app?

Does your Emby Server dashboard display the correct local LAN address?

I can't imagine this has anything to do with anything, but ....

The server Mac is on a 5 port unmanaged TP-Link switch with a VoIP phone, T-Mo cell spot and MacMini, and of course the router.

couldn't sign in this evening.  The LAN address was missing from the dashboard.  

I force quit Emby Server and restarted.

Then signed in again.  Weird

I am, but it keeps happening, intermittently. I gotta bang heads with a networking friend of mine to see if he has any ideas.

@metropical Sounds like you are getting to the bottom of your issue. can you screenshot/describe what you meant by "The lan address was missing from the dashboard". I dont think i am getting that but would like to make sure, to confirm my issue is unrelated to yours.

" i have remember me on, and the server dashboard displays the correct local ip. "

The dashboard missing the local IP when the issue occurs.  I'd say your issue is somewhat different.
