Spooky83 9 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Hey there, I've been using emby for quite some time with a reverse proxy which works flawlessly except for one thing. I'm also using a Chromecast and when I configure the app to connect through the reverse proxy Chromecast doesn't work. Is it be possible to directly connect to the server (with IP or hostname) at home and just use the reverse proxy while not connected to the home network? Or as a work around it would be ok if you could give them different names. Gesendet von meinem ONEPLUS A6013 mit Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37019 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Hi there, does your server dashboard display the correct remote address? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooky83 9 Posted October 24, 2019 Author Share Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) Oh, hadn't tried to change the external address in the settings as the remote connection worked without that. I will try and and see if that helps. Thanks for the quick reply.

Spooky83 9 Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 OK, strange behavior here. Yesterday it seemed to work, but today the app isn't connecting remotely. Remote access via web GUI works without problems. One thing i've noticed is that when changing the remote address it says http://[mydomain].com:8096. In my configuration I don't need the port (forwarding is handled by the reverse proxy) and it's also an https connection. Does this matter?

Solution darkassassin07 418 Posted October 25, 2019 Solution Share Posted October 25, 2019 For external connections handled by a reverse proxy, dont forget to set: (in the emby server network settings) "public https port number:" should be the port the reverse proxy is accepting connections on. "secure connection mode:" should be "handled by reverse proxy" From there the dashboard of your server should display the exact url you would use to connect via a browser: "remote (WAN) access: https://yourdomain.com:443" (the port on the end should match the port the proxy accepts connections on) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooky83 9 Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 Thanks. What a stupid mistake. That seems to work now. Gesendet von meinem ONEPLUS A6013 mit Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
