pnakashian 2 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I just signed up for emby premiere license, when I setup the emby app on firetv i'm unable to register the PIN with my emby credentials keeps saying wrong username/password at this url https://emby.media/pin.html, but the same username password at http://app.emby.media/ with manual login works.

ebr 14949 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Hi. Emby Premiere and Emby Connect (the PIN process) are completely separate. Where is your server located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37192 Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 What he means is, are you trying to connect to your own Emby Server, or someone else's ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnakashian 2 Posted September 11, 2022 Author Share Posted September 11, 2022 my own emby server, the emby client firetv app on 1st install gives "Login with connect", or 'Skip and enter ip address' choices to connect to your emby server. if you choose Login with connect, you are told to visit http://emby.media/pin and enter a 5 digit number. other streaming apps do this to make user/password entry more convenient on a laptop, rather then firetv remove entry. The link i go to http://emby.media/pin doesn't accept my credentials with the app generated 5 digit pin code. The credentials i entered are the same as the credentials i successfully login to http://app.emby.media/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14949 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Hi. Is the stick on the same network as the server? Can you try the option to enter the server address manually? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnakashian 2 Posted September 12, 2022 Author Share Posted September 12, 2022 the fire tv cube 2nd gen is on the same network 192.168.2.0/24 subnet as the emby server, i've already tried entering the ip address manually, and it works. it was a hassle every time i re-installed the emby client app i had to enter the ip address all over again. The reason i had to uninstall it a number of time, I had to experiment the combinations of emby server on nvidia shield tv pro (beta/release version) with emby client (beta version/amazon store version/play store android tv version sideloaded to firetv cube) before I could stream ATSC 3.0 (hevc codec video with ac-4 audio from hdhomerun 4k OTA tuner) to the emby client on 2nd gen fire tv cube, and everything working. future updates could break atsc 3.0 playback, it would be nice if i could get the pin method to work. isn't the PIN registering an account issue on the server? this is the error message i'm getting from http://emby.media/pin Invalid User Name or Password. Do you need to register? When i try to register with my username, it says That display name is in use by another member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14949 Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 If you are on the local network, then using Emby Connect is of very little benefit. The app should be discovering the server automatically. Be sure the server machine firewall isn't blocking UDP requests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pnakashian 2 Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 The emby server is on an nvidia shield tv pro, I don't think there is any firewall setup there. the emby client is a firetv cube no firewall there. my main Asus router there is no iptable drop firewall rules on the bridged interface br0 for the subnet 192.168.2.0/24 (my lan) on all firewall tables filter, nat, mangle, raw that the emby server and client are using. I did find a workaround now , i setup the following in emby server->settings->Network-> Lan networks= 192.168.2.0/24 Local ip address (emby server Nvidia shield)=192.168.2.124 emby server->settings->my account->password-> local network sign in mode= Don't require a password on the local network firetv now autodetects the emby server. also an unusual glitch i found my emby premier key field empty, I had to re-add the key there and save. So What am i losing if my emby connect is not fixed? so far suggestion have not been addressing the problem. i tried using my phone without wifi turned on and emby connect with a pin on url http://emby.media/pin i still got Invalid User Name or Password. Do you need to register? with an outside network or inside my lan same behavior. could emby connect be broken because i installed a beta emby server first, but later uninstalled and installed 4.7.6.0?
