Can't connect to server on 2024 Samsung Smart TV

[Wagner123 0]

My brother-in-law in Arizona has media on his server. On both my iPhone and Sony smart TV I have had access to his server and still do via Emby. My new TV is a Samsung smart TV. From the Samsung App store, I installed the Emby App. But when I specify the same server in Emby Connect I get the error that Emby can't connect to his server. The server address is : https://www.rsmemby.com. What do I need to do to fix this?

Hi, what kind of SSL certificate does he have? The Samsung TV could be rejecting his certificate, thus causing the connection error.

He has a Comodo EV cert

@SamESdo you know if Samsung accepts these?

Yes unfortunately with both Samsung and LG TV's, they are both very picky about what SSL certificates they trust.

Any way to change this. It’s been suggested to use a Fire tv stick

If they are rejecting the certificate, then there is no way around it. You could ask your brother in law to get a certificate that will work more universally if this is the case.

We'll see what @SamESthinks. I think Digicert is usually the leading option.
