Luke 37118 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Hi, you don't need to know their IP address, instead just use the Emby Connect sign in feature in the app. This will allow you to sign in with a much friendlier pin code process. Please let us know if this helps. Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flipflop1288 1 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Share Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Perhaps I'm being extremely noob But since im only using the samsung smart tv app my only "add server" enviroment is shown in the screenshot. But where do I find the emby connect sign inI'm using the latest emby version on a UE40H6200W samsung smart tv. The screenshot is from a youtube clip, not my own tv Edited January 18, 2018 by flipflop1288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBers 6771 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Have you tried entering your friend's ipaddress:port in the field as it says? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrostByte 5052 Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 It helps now that we know what model tv and version of app you're using I don't believe the old unofficial app ever had the ability to use connect added, but you can try changing the port like CBers mentioned The newer official app from the Samsung store should be able to use connect and then you can do as Luke mentioned above.

I think I posted it in my first reply. To quote myself "I'm using the latest emby version on a UE40H6200W samsung smart tv." The manual I used was the one on : https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/9869-samsung-smart-tv-2011-2014-third-party-app-install-instructions/?p=277344 And in my official samsung store I cant seem to find the app. So its probably not there Edited January 18, 2018 by flipflop1288 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution flipflop1288 1 Posted January 18, 2018 Author Solution Share Posted January 18, 2018 OOH Now i see. Everything on the internet is still pointing to installing the third party app. And that's not the way to goThis is at the moment the right way https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/45404-how-to-install-the-official-emby-app-on-a-samsung-smart-tv-outside-the-us-uk-and-ireland/ Thanks all.

Luke 37118 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Can you ask your friend for the server ip address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37118 Posted September 30, 2018 Share Posted September 30, 2018 Then you need to ask them to send an invitation so that you can use the pin feature. it is their private server installation. There is nothing we can do to grant you access to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yohanchinea 0 Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Hi Luke, there is possible for the Dev Team to add the (*aspect ratio) feature to emby TV apps (Samsung, LG amd others) in future release?, it would be really nice to remove the Black Bars on movies and watch the videos in all the tv screen, thanks in advance.
