ebr 14862 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Hi. Emby is a personal media server for your personal media. Either you or a friend or family member need to have content and setup a server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sucramhtes 0 Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Hi, I just joined Emby and I am enjoying it on my mobile devices. I have downloaded the app on my Samsung TV and can see my server but when I try to connect it gives me a connection failure. I don't have any issues connecting to the content on my iPad on the same network so I don't think it's a firewall or port issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

How exactly did you try to connect? Did you enter the server address manually into the Samsung app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sucramhtes 0 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Could the issue be that I downloaded ver. 1.0.39? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 No, I think your friend needs to setup his server for remote access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sucramhtes 0 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I can access the my friends server on the network with all devices except my Samsung tv. I am using the latest rev of code. I’ve port forwarded both 8096 and 8920. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 If it's his server then he is the one who had to do the port forwarding. Can you check with him on that? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sucramhtes 0 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) But why would it work on every device but the TV? Edited April 15, 2018 by Sucramhtes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Is the server address https or http? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sucramhtes 0 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) I can login either way. Https://xxx.xxx.net:443 or Http://xxx.xxx.net:80 Edited April 15, 2018 by Sucramhtes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36886 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Well if it's https you will need to tell him to make sure that Samsung devices will accept his SSL cert. If it's a self signed cert, Samsung will not allow that and he'll have to allow http. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
