tbo799 0 Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) Hello All I am new to Emby I downloaded it today ( Sat 06 Oct) I have managed to slowly work my way through it all but one thing has stumped me I used Plex and with this I am able to access without having my computer switched on, Now I work away from home and this would be nice if I can access Emby the same way and then I can get rid of Plex. Is there something Im not doing right. I cant access Emby on my phone Tablet or Firestick without having my PC on 24/7 Regards and thanks Tyrone Edited October 6, 2018 by tbo799 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbo799 0 Posted October 6, 2018 Author Share Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) I have my media on my pc and my Dropbox Account When I used Plex I used to access the app and this would use my media via Dropbox so that I did not have to have my home pc on 24/7 i think I have linked up Dropbox correctly to mby but cant access the app offline it tells me the server can not be reached Edited October 6, 2018 by tbo799 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
