FIERCE-LION 0 Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 Hello, As DLNA doesn't support authentication, I strongly recommend turning off the DLNA that are enabled by default. If you check around questions related to Emby DLNA Safety Issues, you can find a lot of customers don't know this feature already turned on by default. It's difficult for those fresh notice this feature until they found their roommates, classmates or internal network users already look through all the private/ sensitive contents on Emby without any password. I hope this request can join our attention and fix it in the future version. Regards Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 36997 Posted May 26, 2020 Share Posted May 26, 2020 Hi, thanks for the feedback. It is a difficult balance because if we turn it off by default, then many users will complain of it not working. Maybe we could add it as a question in the startup wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your idea is even a better solution. I believe for those who need this feature will find DLNA settings in the menu list. Also, we can put the notice like "DLNA: Enabled. (All internal network users will see your media contents without any authentications)" in "Dashboard", located as the picture shows, use different color text to remind users.
