vanleeuwen 0 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Anyone else getting asked for a password when opening EMBY in MCE? I have never seen this screen before but now can't get rid of it. In the EMBY MCE settings I have but login current user and remember password selected so no Idea this is happening.

ebr 14904 Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Hi. If you are using a recent server version (4.x) please be sure you are using the beta version of the Emby for WMC app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Nent 50 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 (edited) Upgraded EMby server v4.3.0.25 to 4.3.0.26 this morning and MCE v.3.0.317.0 (=beta) was already installed, but still, we have to enter the password or PIN at every EMBY for MCE start, although in MCE version set under 'Log In: Save Password = set' and within EMBTY server at the user: 'Don't require a password on the local network' and set a simple password, still after starting EMBY at MCE, it requires to enter a password.....very annoying... Within Emby server, the log shows: 2019-11-23 13:37:44.686 Info UserManager: Authentication request for XXXXX has been denied. 2019-11-23 13:37:44.687 Warn HttpServer: AUTH-ERROR: 192.168.0.14 - Invalid user or password entered.2019-11-23 13:37:44.687 Error HttpServer: Invalid user or password entered. Please repair, so that we are still using a password, but that it doesn't have to be entered every start of Emby in MCE... Thankx, Peter Edited November 23, 2019 by PeterNent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14904 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Hi. Try setting the EMC app to show the login screen instead of auto login. Then login once and re-set it to auto. Does it work then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Nent 50 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Following your suggestion: 'setting the EMC app to show the login screen instead of auto login. Then login once and re-set it to auto.', didn't solve the problem for me, but once MANUALLY entering the user and password, de-selecting and selecting again the auto-logon did solve the problem for us.... Thanks for giving us a hint how to solve it ! Regards, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWorkz 7 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 I'm also having the same issue. Have upgraded to latest beta. Changed it to show users, unchecked save password and the tried to resetup but it still prompts for password every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37024 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Did you go back in and check the save password option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Nent 50 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 (edited) Probably interesting extra details: I remember that I had exactly the same situation a while ago (approx. 10 months ago, see: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/68983-emby-for-wmc-stuck-at-splash-screen/) when EMBY's way of encryption of passwords was changed.... Has anything changed again in the current EMBY server release v4.3.0.25 for this ? Edited November 25, 2019 by PeterNent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWorkz 7 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Correct, I disabled and tried entering the username and password manually and then re-saving it. It did not hold unfortunately. Hi.

vanleeuwen 0 Posted November 27, 2019 Author Share Posted November 27, 2019 Mine seems to be working now. I only got this after a fresh windows/EMBY install and once had updated the server side setting saying to auto login locally it worked on MCE again (although I was asked to login when accessing via the web ??)

Luke 37024 Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 The web app will remember your login after the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
