Firewall Rules

[TommyboyCAN 1]

Hi All,

I know I have solved this before on my own, but I am setting up Emby on a new box and having a Windows Firewall issue with streaming LiveTV from an older HDHomeRun

I have tried putting any firewall rule I can think of making sure I let ffmpeg ffprobe etc all be allowed thru the firewall but nothing is working. There are no deny rules that I see.  Can anyone point me in the correct direction for the right firewall rule for this.

Please see this log segment:

HI, yes you'll probably have to allow outgoing udp traffic from the server to the ip address of the tuner.

Thank you did the trick!
