KryptonicBe 8 Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Hi I'm sorry if this is a really simple or stupid question but I didn't find the answer to my specific problem/question. I'm using the Emby server plugin (latest version 4.7.10.0 on a TrueNAS server), I usually connect remotely via my domain name (free ddns service from no-ip) and I have already setup port forwarding for this. Everyting works fine when I connect remotely http(s)://MYDOMAIN:myportnr, I use the app when I'm away from home, no problems here. Recently I wanted to test out the "remote connect" feature since it's also free. I tried to create a new user from the "users" menu on my Emby server but I have no option for Emby Connect or to enter an email address, I can only create a local user. I also tried to subscribe or enable Emby Connect via this link: https://emby.media/connect.html but when I login it brings me to the homepage of the community https://emby.media/community/ and nothing happens. Is Emby Connect only available for some versions of Emby or I'm I doing something wrong? Thank you for your help/advice. Kind regards Christophe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is for you to access, it's not necessary to create a new user. Simply open your existing user account (the one that already works remotely) and add your email address that you signed in to this forum with. Hit 'Save' Once saved, the account is now linked.

I overlooked this every time, while it clearly shows "Emby Connect" below the text input I received the confirmation mail and I'm able to remotly login via my email address now. Thank you for the support! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
