Okay, then that further confirms that you have a basic network connectivity issue here. It isn't specific to the Roku or even Emby potentially. It appears that no other device on your network can reach the server machine and that usually either means a firewall is blocking it OR the address isn't actually reachable for some other reason (incorrect or on a different network).

Awesome... however I still have no idea how to diagnose the 'basic network connectivity issue', as nothing has changed on my system in a year and a half. I've followed the connectivity troubleshooting page, and there is still no connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8340 Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 There is no way Windows 11 has not made changes in a year and a half as mine has updates a minimum weekly. If devices within your LAN are unable to connect to your Emby Server, that usually means there is a Firewall issue on the machine hosting Emby. Have you restarted the machine? Have you tried removing all currently created firewall rules for Emby? Then there is a switch in Emby system.xml "IsPortAuthorized" you change to false to reauthorize. Restart Emby C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\config\system.xml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restart Emby C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Server\programdata\config\system.xml Six days ago now, every device on the LAN could connect to the Emby Server. -Yes.. I deactivated the firewall completely, no change. Then re-enabled the firewall, and followed the Emby connection troubleshooting directions HERE. No change. Yes, I have turned the server machine off and back on multiple times. I have restarted the EmbyServer multiple times manually. The Server works accessing it from the host server, but connection timeout on any server over LAN. If Windows 11 is making LAN changes on your machine 'at a minimum weekly', can you point me in the direction of what changes were made to yours? Because so far I cannot find any changes that were made on my machine that would impact the Emby Server connectivity (and ONLY the Emby server) over LAN. Attempted to force the re-authorizing of the EmbyServer again by changing IsPortAuthorized (which I had found you recommended HERE in 2017) and had attempted it before, but tried again. Still no change. Connection timeout on connecting to the server. Including logs. embyserver.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grashopr 0 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I enabled 8920 and 8096 inbound and outbound ports on firewall per THIS recommendation. No change. Connection timeout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8340 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 But an issue here is nothing in Emby has changed in over 3 Months for this version. But something environmental to your system has changed. All we can do is guess on what that could be, but if no other system can connect to Emby host then I would say there is a firewall issue. What do you get with the command in this topic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwhodges 1538 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Another possibility is that the address of the server has changed, and you're still using the old one. This can happen if for some reason the DHCP lease runs out and a new address is supplied for a new lease; it doesn't have to be a change in the software or anything like that. You can see on the Emby dashboard what Emby thinks the address of the machine is, or you can type "ipconfig" on a command line on the server to see the address there.

Paul When I go into 'manually connect' after the direct connect times out, the address in the recommended field is not the same, however, attempting to connect directly to the server using my phone (on the displayed address in the dashboard) still times out.

Happy2Play 8340 Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 But that has nothing to do with other clients connection to you. But either the WAN address you posted above is wrong or no ports are forwarded as it is unaccessible Remotely. But we are not looking at Remote connections right now.

What is your network connection? Hi. In that same screen shot on your machine, the network is also set to "Private network"? That is critical as most things will be blocked on a public network. I have seen Windows updates switch that setting in the past... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
