vivian99 0 Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 Emby Theater version 1.0.24 (which is like 1.5 years old?) on the newest version of WebOS can't connect to a local server anymore. It worked at least 6 days ago, but now it can't connect locally or through emby connect When the server was in the memory, it gave the general cannot reach server message, but now after resetting the app it wont find it at all. Phone app works both inside and outside the network and so does the windows app. Thanks in advance
vivian99 0 Posted August 15, 2021 Author Posted August 15, 2021 I now realized this is in the wrong section, but apparently I can't delete this post, sorry
Luke 42078 Posted August 15, 2021 Posted August 15, 2021 Try doing a manual connection by entering the server address directly into the LG app.

vivian99 0 Posted August 16, 2021 Author Posted August 16, 2021 I only tried the local address, but that didn't connect. I can try the external address later today

Where did you get them from?

Have you verified that this is in fact the actual address of the server machine? Every once in a while in some environments emby server may not detect the correct LAN address, though this is very rare. 1

Idk how I missed that, but it was using the wrong adapter's IP space. Now changed it and it works. Thank you dearly

If you have customized network settings in Emby Server, please note those are for advanced cases only and the vast majority of users should be able to just leave them blank at default.

Yeah they were blank, I just removed the adapter and it corrected itself
