WOL not working


Recommended Posts

Hi.

I'm a newcomer to Emby with a monthly subscription and I have a problem with the Theatre app not waking the Server on which Emby is installed (running in an Unraid NAS docker).

 

Just to say that WOL is working fine over my LAN, and I've even setup an Alexa skill to wake the NAS Server if asked!   I have an Android App that wakes the server OK, and I can also wake the server  from my Windows 10 PC using a command line:

wolcmd 00-25-22-E6-60-79  192.168.1.102 255.255.255.0 9

i.e. wolcmd [mac address] [ipaddress] [subnet mask] [port number]

I have Wolsniffer that reports WOL packets on the network.  When I issue the command above the sniffer reports the following:

As you can see from the above my PC (IP 192.168.1.136) sends a broadcast to 192.168.1.255 on port 9 for MAC address  00-25-22-E6-60-79 (UNRAID Server  named 'NAS' which is 192.168.1.102).  This wakes the Unraid/'NAS' server fine.

If I now put the server to sleep and open Emby Theatre on my PC (used to send the above example) i have an option to select the Server:

On pressing the 'NAS' I get an option to Wake Server......

When I do this the Wolsniffer reports this packet on the network:-

And based on the unrecognisable infor above (IP, MAC) it is no wonder that the server cannot be found nor woken up......

Why is the Emby Theatre not sending the right packet to wake the server on the LAN?  Have I missed a setting somewhere in the client/server/emby connect?  

I would  like the Theatre app to wake the server and if at all possible send a WOL packet automatically if the server is not found when the app starts.  Thanks for any help!

Hi, what version of Theater are you running?

Server is at 4.7.6.0 for completeness!

Have just tried that and removed/cleared all traces.  Re-installed and same issue.

That's odd. We'll take a look at if. Thanks.

Hi.

 

I've been doing some additional detective work at my end and I may have stumbled across a possible underlying reason why this may be screwed up.

With Emby Theatre (ET) being agnostic towards more than one server to be woken up, there is only one place where the 'client' would and could get the MAC address for the server, and that would have been from the server itself when the client was first installed and connected to the Emby Server. 

So I installed ET on a another PC which has never had it before and I went through the process of connecting, putting server to sleep and then trying to wake it from the ET GUI,  I had the Wolsniffer on my other PC and picked up two WOL broadcasts from the one press of the wake button (only posting the one here for brevity).  So the other PC has picked up the same and incorrect MAC address from the Emby Server (running in a docker on Unraid).

This got me thinking about the install of the docker, especially that I am new to Unraid and when searching for Emby on the Unraid Apps, the most downloads was from a repository from binhex.  So I had installed 'binhex-emby' and not the 'Official'  Emby Server (which I found by further looking down the list of Apps).  So  I stopped the binhex-emby server and installed the 'Official' Emby Server in another docker.

Long story short,.... and having uninstalled ET and re-installed and re-connected initially back with the 'new' Emby Server on Unraid, ET would still not wake up the server, but hold the front page...........  there were many WOL requests this time from the single press of the wake option in the ET Gui,

 

The first six of the requests had the correct MAC address, but the source IP was strange still.  The destination IP was 255.255.255.255 whereas the WOLCMD on a command line sends the broadcast to 192.168.1.255.

Thereafter there are 8 more WOL requests with 4 different MAC addresses.  In all instances there was an extra "password" token in the WOL requests which not in the command line request,.  (See below).

So, looks like binhex-emby on Unraid screwed things up and did not pass the correct MAC back to the client to use on wake, but the officiial Emby Server although using the right MAC address, broadcast it on a different IP on the network which did not wake the PC.

Hope that helps a bit!

Thanks for following up. Yea I wasn't sure we were going to find anything in the app because you're exactly right - the mac address comes from the emby server.

At the risk of really confusing the issue further.....

I also have an Nvidia TV Shield  Pro (2019).

When the server is off and I open the  Emby app on the shield, I have to select the server at which point it immediately sends out the following WOL broadcast.

 

You will see it has a recognisable IP sending address as being on the LAN (i.e. 192.168.1.149),  the first 3 entries have the correct MAC,, destination is 255.255.255.255, and no 'password' token .....  and one of these requests actually woke the server up and kept it awake even when I tried to manually put the server to sleep!  

Go figure!

Still would be good to get the Windows Theatre client to properly form and send a WOL packet to the server!

Hi, but I thought you said it worked with our official docker container?

What networking mode are you using in docker, host or bridge?

Nearly.  The correct MAC address was picked up but the IP address and mask used still meant Emby Theater still did not wake up the NAS server.  If that makes sense!  My example of the Shield App working just showed what the NAS would wake up to from an Emby client.

Host.  (I think that was the default).

OK, I think I see the issue, thanks. It will be resolved in the next update to the app.

Hi @Luke

Has there been an update to the Emby Theater for Windows?  I have just downloaded the latest off your site and it is still at 3.020.  As a result, the malformed WOL packet is still not waking my Unraid server on which the Emby Server is running in a docker but for which the Unraid Server is not running 24/7 but can be woken with a WOL packet.  

Thanks.

Hi, I'm not sure what your issue is, but I don't think the packet is malformed because then nobody would be able to use WOL.

What I would suggest is to stay tuned. We have a new windows app set to debut very soon, and then you can re-evaluate with that. Thanks.

OK, thanks.

I think the underlying issue is that Emby is running in a docker on Unraid and as such the Emby 'server' has a different IP and different MAC to the actual Unraid server (physical server) which needs waking up!  But I will keep my eye open!

Hi  @Luke ,

I installed the App from the Windows Store and just ignoring the top blue window border that remains if 'maximised', if the server is off there is no option to wake it.

The Windows Desktop App (which has a larger UI presentation and easier to see) is still at 3.02.0 so that is still not waking the server.

Is a functioning WOL still on your 'to do list'?!  Thanks,

Hi, where are you looking for it?

OOps, just found it!  Sorry!  Was expecting to see the option once the connection failed like it does in the Desktop App. But on the Store App it's on the three dots menu.

 

However, the WOL still does not work for the server (Unraid) on which Emby is installed (Docker container).

I loaded WOLSniffer to monitor for the WOL packets when I tried to wake the server, but there were none from the App at all.

Will the Desktop Theater App be updated from 3.0.20 or is this sunsetted in favor of the Emby Theater Store App?  For some reason I cannot get the windows store Theater App to go full screen without a top blue border!

Can you put a webhook in the client side to fire a webhook to wake the server?  I have a URL that can wake the Unraid server!  Here's the WOL packets that are sent out from the Alexa WOL Skill.......

Hi, the app supports wol and it works just fine, however it currently requires default conditions for things like the subnet address and port.

 The two apps are in process of being unified together.

Ok.  However, I installed the Windows Store (WS) for the first time yesterday and AFAICT I use the default HTTP port (8096) and both my PC and the Unraid server are on the same subnet.  The WS instance did not send any WOL packets when I tried to wake the server.  It's not that the WS client was trying to wake the wrong server, there were NO WOL packets whatsover when I tried.  Under what conditions does your WS instance 'work fine'?  Mine doesn't!

 

Thanks.

I would wait and reevaluate this in a couple weeks as a newly revamped version of the app is set to be released. Thanks.

Will do!

Would a webhook in the client be a workable alternative?  It certainly works well for me in the Server side!
