Crestj 67 Posted August 31, 2016 Share Posted August 31, 2016 My login to my Emby server has an & but the app shows this as "+%26+" If I try and login using this code it fails and if I change it to an & it also fails. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Not sure what changes but now I can login if I change it to an & but it still always defaults to +%26+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Vicpa 564 Posted September 12, 2016 Solution Share Posted September 12, 2016 Hi @Crestj Not sure how you were able to create a user id with an "&" ? From the server.

Crestj 67 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 It's been like that since year0 so maybe I created it before there was a programmatic check! Maybe I should change it?! Sent from my OnePlus One using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Changed it now, never noticed that restriction before as I set up all my users years ago and never been in that section since! I wonder if that helps with other UWP app issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crestj 67 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 OK Well after changing the & to a <space>and<space> it now shows in the app as +and+ which also fails the login. Some addition code required in the login screen I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crestj 67 Posted September 12, 2016 Author Share Posted September 12, 2016 Seems odd it still allows you to rename the user to an unauthorised name in the settings. Oh well, ugly underscores it is then. Sent from my OnePlus One using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7illusions 1249 Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 I will look into this anyways. If the server allows it, then the app should. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
