Changing the Emby URL shown in Synology Package Center

[Warcrafter 2]

Hello everyone,

I’m using Emby on a Synology NAS. In the Package Center, the Emby server properties show an external URL (DDNS address). Since I’ve disabled remote access for security, this URL no longer works.

Is there a way to change or customize the URL shown in the Synology Package Center to use the local IP address or a different internal address?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Kind Regards,

René

try with this

http://nasIP:8096

Replase nasIP with the ip of your nas.

Hi,

thanks for your reply, but I don't have the problem to get on the emby server with my nasIP:
http://192.168.178.xx:8096/

But when I click on the Icon on the Synology Desktop this URL is shown (which is also the URL from the package center) and this URL isn't working anymore:

Just guessing, but I thought DSM filled that in

Do you have anything in the hostname box below.  Mine is blank.

 

My link uses the server's name I presume from here

 

Which gets changed here

yes, there was an external hostname in the field, I deleted it and restarted my server, but the URL didn't change.

Emby (or DSM) still uses the external URL I posted in my second answer...

I wonder if it pulls that information at the time of install.

Did you ever resolve this?

If not, try loading 4.9.1.80 which is now the latest stable.  

Now that you cleared that hostname field, I'm guessing that the new install will build the link correctly.

No, this didn't resolve the problem. 

There is still the URL from the hostname field, so the link is still wrong
