Goose48 2 Posted November 29, 2023 Author Share Posted November 29, 2023 Everything on my computer with the new HD seems normal. All the Emby movies appear in the computer window pane and they play normally. I tried Emby on my smart tv and it won't connect. I tried to manually select my server and I get ":There is an error processing the request. Please try again later." As I mentioned the HD on my computer was going bad and I had to replace it with a new one. The old HD was mirrored with the new HD. All data was mirrored. I tried to download a new Emby server from the net and it just keep loading, it never loaded. I tired to see if the Emby server was still on the computer (with new HD) and I couldn't locate it. Went to control panel programs and no Emby. On the old HD computer window pane, the Emby app icon appeared in the task bar. It is not there with the new HD computer window pane. I was working with Windows 10 and now with the new HD, it's windows 11. I opened the Emby Dashboard and used the Host and LAN numbers and typed them into the server . Still no connection between the server and TV. I know there is a simple fix to this problem. Can you help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose48 2 Posted November 29, 2023 Author Share Posted November 29, 2023 Luke, can this be a Network and Internet Sharing problem. I changed my Wifi modem a while back and had issues with connection between my computer and TV. I was advised to changed the Public and Private Discovery buttons from the control panel and Emby was up and running. Is this a possibility?

Goose48 2 Posted November 30, 2023 Author Share Posted November 30, 2023 All the movies I installed using Emby appeared and worked by clicking on them on my computer only. Everything appears normal. Artwork, subject and loaded movies. On the smart tv Emby will not open to the movies and goes to the select a server. I tried to select my server on the smart tv, the white circle begins to rotate and eventually stops to ":There is an error processing the request. Please try again later." I tried re starting the computer, tried the dashboard for th Port and Lan numbers and looking at the deleting the server and starting all over. Any suggestions?

Goose48 2 Posted December 1, 2023 Author Share Posted December 1, 2023 Sorry, phones and tablet do not connect. I tried to open the Emby app today and it won't open. I have to sign in. Can't sign in. Won't accept my password. Tried to change and it won't let me. This is becoming a mess. Can I just delete the server and start over again?

Also, what exactly happens with the TVs now? is it still the password error, or something else? Are you able to connect from a smartphone now?
