What exactly have you done?

How many times are you going to ask this? I've done everything that in the forum, but the instructions are all over the place. Let's work together to get a clear list of instructions...

Did you restart the Emby server after installing the certificate?

I haven't read this whole thread so bear with me...

- You now have a cert installed and restarted Emby.
- Can you connect to your server using https?
- What ports are you using externally? I think Alexa needs 443.
- Setup port forwarding on your router: port 443 -> 8920 on Emby server.
- In Network settings on Emby server set the public https port number to 443. Only the public value.
- You might have to check/redo the Alexa settings for Emby?

When adding domain to certificate in Dynu am I using "domain" or "Ipv4"?

You don't need to do anything certificate related in Dynu. Are you talking about the TXT record validation?

I understand that, in ZeroSSl, which do I use when creating certificate "domain" or "iPv4"

To get certificates you use domain, IPv4 does not apply to certs. If you can connect to your server using https from LAN, make sure WAN is also working - can use a mobile phone on cellular network for this test. The next steps would be to get Alexa working.

What does your https URL look like? You don't have to share your actual domain, a dummy entry is enough.

Does Alexa need to be setup again for Emby after you've made these changes?

When I set it up in dynu it's blank.ddnsfree.com there is no http or https leading. When I type it in a browser it takes me to my router

It appears now, the alexa emby app is not connecting to my server... I disabled it, now when I do emby setup, server to control is blank....

What do you use to connect using a browser and phone app?

https://blank.ddsnfree.com:8920

or https://blank.ddnsfree.com

or something else?

What does your Emby server dashboard show for LAN and WAN access?

Now go back and check these:

That's not https. Can you attach your Emby server log to this thread?

Can you edit your post and remove that log then attach it as a file instead of pasting in the whole thing as a post?

It looks like you haven't entered your external domain name in the Emby Network settings.

Emby can't open the certificate file because it doesn't like the password.
