rafailsar 0 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Hi, does anyone know what are all the ports needed to us Emby ? I want to use Live Tv with a m3u file list and i am not sure if i blocked any necessary ports. It works fine with the IPTV plug in.

BAlGaInTl 279 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 8096 and 8920. Thank you very much. But what is up with port 1900 that emby opend ? I would like to know this too... I was just using the two standard ports before, and recently, my remote access stopped working for my Docker install. I had to open UDP ports 1900 and 7359 in the Docker and on my router. Is this unique to linux/Docker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Sorry forgot those. 1900 is for dlna/upnp and 7359 is for local network discovery. However, we don't do anything with the router for ports 1900 and 7359. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runtimesandbox 152 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) I realise this is an old thread I am piggy backing on Are these all TCP ports? Are either 7359 or 1900 required for chromecasts to work locally (do they only need to be accessible to chromecasts or all devices?) Having issues with firewalling my emby server Edited May 25, 2020 by runtimesandbox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 7359 is a udp port for local server discovery by emby apps. 1900 is for dlna. Neither will affect Chromecast. All others are tcp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtimesandbox 152 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Thanks Luke is there any detailed documentation on how the chromecast hand-off works from the emby mobile apps? If i restrict the local emby ip address to just allow access from the ip of the chromecast nothing will load / play on the chromecast, however if i allow all ip addresses access (including the mobile device used) it works. All other access goes through an nginx reverse proxy however from other threads I've gathered that the chromecast still gets sent the local server IP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 In most cases it will use the same server address that the mobile app is using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtimesandbox 152 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 I'm not currently seeing this behaviour All my clients are set to use the FQDN which is configured both with both internal and external DNS. This works fine for most devices that are internal (ie Samsung TV's, nvidia shield) but not the chromecast. By process of elimination I have figured out that it is the firewall rules that were blocking direct access. The mobile app uses the FQDN but if direct access from the mobile device to the server is not permitted using the internal ip : emby port (192.168.1.2:8096) but the chromecast does have direct access, nothing will play on the chromecast.

Luke 37009 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 That's right, yes. It will try to use the local LAN address when possible. If that can't be reached, then it will revert to the remote address. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtimesandbox 152 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Its the reverting to the remote address that doesn't seem to be happening. If the firewall is completely closed I don't get any connection at all (where as it should revert to the external address and use the reverse proxy right?)

Luke 37009 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 It's the two addresses displayed on your server dashboard. Are those correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
