Connecting Windows Phone to Media Browser Server

Recommended Posts

Having difficulties connecting windows 8 phone Media Browser to the server.

 

The server is running on the computer:

 

Version 3.0.5097.16641

Media Browser Server is up to date

Running on port 8096

 

When I put in the hostname in the phone's browser I can see it's authenticating however I keep getting the error message "Connection details are invalid, please try again".

 

I'm putting the external IP address in as the hostname 68.xxx.x.xx and I'm not connected to WiFi.

 

I've attached a screen shot of the port forwarding settings I'm using. I'd send the email logs but nothing comes up when I click on the email logs link on the phone.

 

I did pay for the app so any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

 

 

 

A new version of Media Browser Server is available!

Please shutdown the server and update manually.
There was an error connecting to the remote Media Browser repository.

Your port forward is for port 9080 not 8096 and you will also need to forward 8945 (if you are using standard mb3 ports)

Might be worth trying to connect on your home network first. If you can connect (WiFi) take it from there...
