Title: Got logged out of Emby on Android TV and can’t sign back in

Hi everyone,

My Emby app on Android TV suddenly logged me out, and now I can’t sign back in.

The strange part is that everything works perfectly on my phone using the same account, so the server is definitely online and accessible.

I’ve already tried:

• Restarting the Emby server.
• Restarting the Android TV.
• Reinstalling the Emby app.
• Signing in again.

It just won’t let me log in on the Android TV.

Has anyone experienced this or knows what could be causing it?

Thanks in advance!

Some more details around what exactly happens when you try to log in - any error message, server logs, screenshots would be helpful.

How to Report a Problem

When I try to log in on my Android TV, it simply says “Incorrect password.”

The strange thing is that the exact same credentials work perfectly on my phone.

I also tried using the Forgot Password option on the Android TV, but it just returns an error. I’ll upload a screenshot of that error shortly.

Could this be related to the server somehow?
