GhostRider 46 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) Hi, I have the Media Browser app on my iPad version 1.1.4. This does not show any update available in iTunes. Does this mean I have to repurchase the Emby app in iTunes or is there an upgrade path? Edited January 9, 2016 by GhostRider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediacowboy 438 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 You will need to download the emby app. If you are already a premier supporter. All you have to do to unlock the full power of the app is login into your server on your network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostRider 46 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks for reply. I have installed the Emby app. Alas I cannot connect to my server from my iPad. The server home page shows failed login attempt so I must have my server settings correct on the app side. As I purchased the media browser app do I now have to repurchase the Emby app? I do not have a premier support but did purchase the media browser iOS app and have purchased a supporter donation on the server side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediacowboy 438 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Since you are a supporter server side as soon as you get your iPad to connect to the server and go to play something it should unlock the app. If you are seeing login failed it would lead me to believe maybe you are typing the password wrong?

ebr 14913 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 Just because you may not realize it, the old app was developed by a 3rd party and that's where your payment went for it. As cowboy said, if you have a valid key on the server you just need to get connected locally and the new app will work too. Thanks for your support.

GhostRider 46 Posted January 9, 2016 Author Share Posted January 9, 2016 Many thanks Mediacowboy and Ebr. As an occasional user it is hard to keep up with the rapid development that is happening with the server and clients. Emby on my iPad is now working, I was entering my password correctly but once I tried to play something it started working and no longer prompts me for a password. One thing I noticed is that when I quit the iOS app the server still keeps running the transcoding with CPU usage close to maximum, almost as if it was not aware the iOS app was no longer in use.

I believe this has been reported. Check that this isn't reported some where else. If it isn't reported then I would start a new thread with your server log and a transcoding log.
