Pain 13 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I have a domain I bought for emby and have been using it for a while with no issues. I just paid for SSL thru my webhost and have the crts. In all the directions I have read they always ask for a .pfx file. It should be simple and strait forward I would think. Can I get some help real quick like please @Luke thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hi, what exactly do you need help with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hi For one I don't have a pfx file only crt. And the rest in emby looks strait forward. I should only have to change the Secure connection mode? I plan on using the same secure port 8920 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Correct. Do you use a reverse proxy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 No, I'm not really sure what that is... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37009 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Ok so then the answer is no. So you just need to convert your certificate file. Have you seen something like this? https://www.ssl.com/how-to/create-a-pfx-p12-certificate-file-using-openssl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 I have not and it seems complected. Nothing never simple. Theres got to be a simpler way like a generator or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 I think I have it figured out. I got openssl installed and tested with another domain and it generated the pfx I need. But I just added the SSL to my emby domain and its not generating the key for me. So I have them helping me with that for now then Ill see if I can get it working. I guess no one shares their server domain names around here? Thank you for your help @Luke Ill report back.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pain 13 Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 Hi @Luke I believe I have it figured out. Its secure under SSL now. So my certificate expires every year will I have to generate a new pfx from the updated crt if they even update them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pain 13 Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 Do you no how I could have my URL redirect to the port? So when you enter the URL in a browser the browser will take you right to the correct port and open emby in that browser? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you just got everything set up, but because you're on Synology there's a much easier way to do this that would provide benefits like: Free (no need to buy a cert from your domain provider) Automatic (no need to worry about generating and uploading files) I think it would benefit you in the long run. If it's something you'd be interested in, let me know and I'll be happy to help ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
