Hello,

I’m having major issues connecting to Emby through Emby Theater and the Samsung TV app.

The server is running version 4.9.5.0, but Emby Theater says the server needs updating, and the Samsung TV app says it cannot connect.

I have  configured  Fedora firewall and MikroTik NAT/firewall rules.

  • Emby works flawless from web on LAN devices including Android, Apple, Fedora, CentOS, and Windows 11,
  •  I can also connect remotely from work and mobile data.
  • I can SSH the Samsung TV Poke and Prod Emby and see traffic via: 
    • sudo tcpdump -ni any tcp port 8096

So the server is reachable locally and remotely, but Emby Theater and the Samsung TV app fail. I also tried one month of Emby Premiere, but it did not resolve the issue.

Since Chrome/Firefox/Safari already works flawlessly, I don’t really need Emby Theater right now, but my wife and kids don't live on their computers Like I do... 

I’m not in a massive rush, and I might even sort it out eventually, but honestly it’s just annoying more than anything. I bet it turns out to be some random checkbox on the server that I’ve overlooked.
