Emby Connect or Direct Connection


Recommended Posts

Is there a benefit of using emby connect over directly connecting when using a web browser?

 

I mean, since you need to forward ports in your router to your emby server anyway, why not just connect by opening directly in a browser. Either by using your public IP or ddns if using that? Is there some benefit I don't know about to using emby connect?

Hi, welcome. If this process is easy for you, then by all means. But not everyone knows or remembers their IP address and this is where Emby Connect comes in handy.

Ok. Thank you. I was just curious if I was missing a benefit. Guess the benefit is the ease of connecting.

Also if using emby connect you can not access plugin settings

think of it as a 411 for your server.
