Recommended Posts

Hi,

So I installed Emby for android 3.5.12 on my friends  firestick so he can access his sever. At this time I do not wish for him to access my server. Yet when going to the side menu he selects the 2nd choice which shows his server name he see my server too. How do I prevent him from seeing my server in the list so it only shows his? I also want to be able to see his server from my Emby app at home. So he does not see mine but I see his and can access it through app

I have attached a pic of the servers seen

Thank you for your help,

Bryan

Long press on your server thumb>"Delete" in the context menu.

It is per-user selection, only the user that removes it won't have it in Sever Selection screen.

May I ask what causes my friend to see my server in the first place is there a setting I should  not choose so if I add another at a different location they would not see my server from the start?

 

Thank you

He must've (or you did it in his stead while setting up his device) entered server details/logged in to your server at least once.

Noone should able to see your sever remotely (sniffers aside) unless server details added manually or logged in through Emby Connect (with you linking their local account to their Connect account beforehand).

So if I delete my email address is his account I think I did add it then it will not show anymore?

What I am asking is once email addy is entered on his server but then I remove it before installing the app will the app only show his server. So if a server has my info then delete form server then install app only his server will show?

 

thank you

I have to admit I hardly understand anything there. 

Just remove your server from Select Server page shown on your screenshot. He won't see it anymore unless you have added him as a user on your server and linked his Connect account to that user.
