ticster 1 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Hi, When I connect to emby server from the localhost using emby theatre it shows as connecting from 'the internet' rather than the local network IP and when I look at stats for nerds it's showing as streaming over http and thus of course transcoding everything from 4K HEVC to h.264 and lower standard audio. When I connect from emby theatre on the same host and try to connect locally to my emby server on the noted internal LAN address it fails to connect - by adding a server manually, when I login to the 'discovered' server it shows me as coming from the WAN vs the LAN which of course precipitates the problem, another laptop on the same LAN can connect with emby connect and shows as coming from the local lan in the emby server dashboard. The only host with the problem is the host where the emby server and emby theatre are installed and I can see no reason why, everything 'looks' right. I can connect via web browser to the server on internal LAN IP address and port - works fine but of course forces transcoding as it's serving over http but emby theatre simply isn't working - please help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution ebr 14910 Posted March 28, 2019 Solution Share Posted March 28, 2019 Hi. Are you using the app from the store? If so, there may be restrictions on network access that have to be configured. The desktop version would not have this problem. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
