jasonmcroy 315 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 I am not sure when this started, but if I try to access my Series page under the Live TV section using the Web App instead of it being the usual list, it's a bunch of colored icons that I can't access. If I access the Web App from the local host it works just fine as normal. Here is the screen shot of the Web App from my Local Host: Here is the screen shot if I try to access it from the Web App via Emby Connect: If I click any of the Series in the last screen shot I just get a spinning circle. This makes me unable to delete a Series unless I access the page via the Local Host computer. Can anyone else recreate this? I have tried it via Chrome and Firefox. I am on stable server version 3.0.7300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 It is possibly do to the fact that your local server is v3.0.7300 and Emby Connect is v3.1.6122.19439. You can see the version difference if you check Active Devices in the Dashboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmcroy 315 Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 Per the Dashboard on the local server the App on the not local machine version is v3.1.6122.19439. Doesn't Emby Connect update when the Server updates? I am not sure how that works exactly. I've never seen a separate update for Connect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (edited) I don't know how it works but the app/Connect runs a different build than your local system. @Luke would have to give more insight on this.

ebr 14910 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 When you say "via Connect" do you really mean app.emby.media? If so, then that will always be the latest release version of the server. You appear to be running a dev version locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, then that will always be the latest release version of the server. You appear to be running a dev version locally. I guess that is what I mean. I have to click the Emby Connect button from the forum to access the Web App when I am not on my local machine. That is how I access it. When I do click that button the address is app.emby.media so I thought they were the same. Is that not true? If not that is confusing. Anyway, my server version number is Version 3.0.7300.0. I believe that is the stable version per the last Blog post on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the Connect version number is ahead of the versioning listed on GitHub releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could have sworn we changed the title of that button... They are not the same. Emby Connect provides an easy way to connect to your server remotely without having to know the IP address. It is like a dynamic DNS service. That button takes you to the online web client which can attach to your server using Connect or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the online web client (Connect/app.emby.media) will always use the WAN since it is not a local version being connected to.

No. You can attach directly to your local server via the local IP address/machine name. For instance, on your server machine you can "Add Server" and give it "localhost" as the address. Now, there isn't a whole lot of reason to do that because you could just go directly there in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmcroy 315 Posted October 6, 2016 Author Share Posted October 6, 2016 Thanks for clearing that up. So then, the issue only occurs if I connect via the online Emby app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37060 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 When there are no breaking api changes i will often deploy newer code to the online web app, yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14910 Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 BTW - using Connect also won't always use the WAN address. The apps will use the local address if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasonmcroy 315 Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 (edited) so this is still an issue for me. I noticed today that it also occurs in the android mobile app on my tablet. No one else is seeing this happen for them? Edit: Here is a log after I just tried to do this from the web app on my laptop (on my network). I go to the Series tab, click one of the shows (which are colored boxes rather than the list I get on the Local Host computer) and I get nothing but a spinning circle. server-63611481600.txt Edited October 8, 2016 by jasonmcroy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
