Android tv on sony bravia manual and emby connect not able to connect

[ginjaninja 605]

Server 3.2.1

Client downloaded yesterday.

 

Im connecting remotely accross internet using emby connect for first time.

 

Pin registration for connect for tv works.

 

At 'select a server' screen icon shows a local ip (192.168.x.x) .

 

Message is server is unavailable

 

Manual server entry also is unsuccesful in android tv emby client on both http and https ports.

 

My phone is able to connect fine using android client. Chrome is able to connect fine.

There should be a "Send Log" button on the screen after the attempt to connect fails.  Please press it and then let me know exactly when that was.  Thanks.

I had exactly the same. What did the trick for me was adding 8096 (or the other port you're using for emby) to the firewall as open/allow or however you call it on the server where your emby server is running on. Even though all other systems work, android TV didnt work for me. After adding to firewall, it worked!
