Guest PutzJimmy Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 Server 4.8.0.61 Android Tv 2.0.98g & 2.0.99g On several different android tv devices we are unable to connect to my emby server using synology's reverse proxy with a valid certificate. Works perfectly on every other app, browser we tried so far. Had no problems with the same setup on Jellyfin. When you get to the first screen in Emby and hit skip and enter ip adress, enter in the correct info and hit ok you go back to the first screen again with no errors at all so i have no clue what is wrong.

PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Fake adress here but thats how we enter it, exactly as we do in web or ios/android apps https://media.something.myds.me 443 Nope after entering the server info it just goes back to that first screen with no errors which is super annoying IMG_20231204_195325.HEIC IMG_20231204_195317.HEIC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14925 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 How long have you waited after entering that address? Try waiting about 60 seconds (watch for any messages) then hit the cancel button. Does that give you a screen with a "Send Logs" button on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 We have and there is no "connecting" you can click cancel on or anything that would indicate its doing something, it just goes back to that first screen. Clicking cancel there just exits Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14925 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Have you tried testing with http to see if this is those devices refusing to accept the cert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Exactly the same thing happens with http and we also tried setting the port to 0, 00, 000 from a forum post I saw, still just goes to the first screen with zero errors/info on whats going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Cant find that post and i don't remember who wrote that either, but the idea was that setting the port to "null" would use 443 anyway from the https or something like that. But it didn't do anything different then entering it correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it didn't do anything different then entering it correctly This is that post. But it was in regards to the Roku where to use an empty port the value must equate to zero. We will be improving this so you can also just leave it blank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Yes that's the one!

ebr 14925 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Hi. Can you try sideloading our standard android app on the same device and see how that compares? https://emby.media/emby-for-android.html Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 (edited) That one connected instantly on two not working devices and casting to all of them works so it has to be something wrong with the android tv app Edited December 9, 2023 by PutzJimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you happy continuing to use that? It fully supports TV devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 Well casting sucks both for users and for server that constantly have to do unnecessary transcodes. The Android app I don't mind who knows how to do it, my family & friends tho is a different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37099 Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 We are working on getting it into the store for TV devices, so that will make it easier for your friends and family to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PutzJimmy 4 Posted December 26, 2023 Share Posted December 26, 2023 (edited) All it generated was the embyserver.txt and hardware_detection-63839204230.txt https://pastebin.com/Y3Fi2Gia but here you have what happens when we tried from a mi box 3 and 4. Was at my sister over the Christmas "God Jul " and was able to experiment around myself and found that her LG webOS tv had the Emby app but it had the same problem as the Android Tv app, would not connect to server whatsoever. Her Android Phones, Android tablets, web browsers, Windows Emby app and casting to her mi box 4 works "crappy as fuck tho ala chromecast " but the Android phone app on mi box wont play anything no matter what settings ive tried Edited December 26, 2023 by PutzJimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
