Quasi TV can't connect to Emby Server - Fire TV Stick 4K select

In Reference to another Topic: 

 

I have the same issue and even traded in my old Fire Stick… but anyway, now I’m trying to find a way to use Emby on my new Fire TV Stick 4K Select with VegaOS.

I can download the app “Quasi TV” from the app store, and it is supposed to be connectable to Emby. But for me this doesn’t work — neither via direct IP input nor through Emby Connect. Both ways end up with a strange error saying: “can’t access your server <IP Address> from IP 172.17.0.x” (multiple ports and the last IP digit keeps changing).

Has anyone experienced this before and already found a solution?

 

My Emby Servers is running on my synology NAS on Version 4.8.11.0

Hi, what about using a dlna app with emby server's dlna server feature?

good idea, but i can't find any. The store seems to be super restricted. No Kodi, no MythTV, not even VLC is available.

Are you using docker?

172.17.0.x is usually ar docker network address.

Yes I'm using docker on the NAS, but emby server was installed via the packet center without docker.

Hmm odd.

That ip do you access your nas from?

Try with that.

No my NAS and the Firestick aswell got a normal home IP (192.168.x.x) from my Router (double checked in the router), but the error on TV screen says, that connecting failed from IP 172.17.x.x.

Try manuel connection to 192.168.x.x

yes that's what i'm trying. But the fire tv stick gets a timeout after 10 secs saying it can't connect - and from another IP than the network IP ... 172.17 instead of 192.168. ... No idea why...
