clarkss12 295 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 They are working on it. Right now, your Android box (if it is a newer one), should work reasonably well as a server, but as a client, it is not quite there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fritschetom 2 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I am running Emby Server on my Android S912 box. It is running pretty well and most things work. I am using Kodi as the front end with the Emby for Kodi Sync Add-On. Everything is working very well with this configuration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelon 160 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 I would be interested to know if you can access the box from your PC over WiFi ? I'm testing using an Shield, and I can say that I can access any media on the Shield from a PC, or from any other client that I have tried.

Luke 37024 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 hi @@Danyjoel01, @@SBH46, have you checked out our Android TV app? https://emby.media/emby-for-android-tv.html We also have Emby Server for Android currently in testing. You can check that out here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/53944-emby-server-for-android/ Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paralepepipedo 1 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I would be interested to know if you can access the box from your PC over WiFi ? I am using a tv box with the same features as your 2GB / 16GB is a mibox3, the server works perfect to transmit within the same network via wifi to my mobile phone, to my smart tv and also transmits outside the network (this function it's demo, but I assure you it's worth paying the subscription).

tmdiv 0 Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) Hi, I run Emby Server for Android on Ferguson ATV box and I need to start/restart the server from command line. There is dual OS (Android 7.0 and AOL Debian 8 jessie), 2GB RAM and 8GB internal memory. I was forced to expand it with SD card to avoid full mem, so there is a ~70 GB shared memory. The server works generally fine but when I sleep the system and wake it up, the emby server is not working. When I restart the system, emby won't start automatically (I can't install Emby in internal mem as written here https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/73388-how-to-auto-start-on-reboot/, when I use app Lunch on Boot the server usually does not start). Also after many days of work (without sleep) emby server sometimes stops working and I need to restart it (from distant PC). So there is my question: How can I start/restart emby from Debian command line? (when emby is working I can see a process in Debian cmd) Edited May 13, 2019 by tmdiv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you installed the android version and not the linux version, right? I don't know if you can launch the android version from a command line. @@softworkz may know. However the reason it won't auto-start is because you installed the app on an SD card. When you do this, the system will not allow it to auto-start.

softworkz 3326 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 when I sleep the system and wake it up, the emby server is not working. When I restart the system, emby won't start automatically For the Android server, there's currently no specific support for sleep and wakeup. I would suggest simply not putting it to sleep. I can't install Emby in internal mem as written here https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/73388-how-to-auto-start-on-reboot/, I can't see any reason given in that topic...? (actually not even any post of yours) Also after many days of work (without sleep) emby server sometimes stops working and I need to restart it (from distant PC). When that happens, what does the server log from the previous run contain at the end? Is there any kind of error? Or information about a shutdown request?
