hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 i read somewhere that the ps4 had an emby app, i bought a ps4 and it is not there. could you make an app for the ps4 pro please?
gjviii 48 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 i dont own a ps4, but https://emby.media/emby-ps4.html
hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 yeah i did that it's slow as heck and couldn't even sign into my account
chef 3810 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 You could use DLNA w/ ps4 You could use the browser and go to: tv.emby.media
dcrdev 255 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 You haven't given much info beyond it's not working - but one thing to bear in mind is that if your using ssl, you need to use a trusted certificate and not a self signed one; a limitation of the PS4 is sadly you can't import certificates.
hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 I'd rather have an app to use with emby because it looks good through an app.
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 @@hjason7812, hopefully we will have an app in the PS4 app store, and when we do, it will look exactly the same as Emby Theater. So now that you're armed with that knowledge, wouldn't you agree that using http://tv.emby.media is a great option in the meantime? Thanks !
hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 no I'm not luke because the browser sucks on PlayStation it won't let me log in. that is why i was wondering if there was a ps4 app thanks
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 no I'm not luke because the browser sucks on PlayStation it won't let me log in. that is why i was wondering if there was a ps4 app thanks Why won't it let you log in? Can you please provide a little more information? A login problem could happen with an app or a browser just the same.
hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 when i go to the link i did the code thing and when i go to login to my server it just sits there..
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 Can you please describe your login problem? Thanks !
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 What url did you use, http://tv.emby.media ? Or did you use the https version? Try the plain http version.
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 Ok, try skipping Emby Connect and then manually enter your server address that way.
hjason7812 34 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Posted June 23, 2017 it works, but it takes forever to load. thanks. can't wait for the app :/
Luke 42077 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 it works, but it takes forever to load. thanks. can't wait for the app :/ It will improve as the app builds up it's image cache. If you have the Cover Art plugin installed, try removing that for faster image downloading performance.
chef 3810 Posted June 23, 2017 Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Also, it might be best to make sure the ps4 is hard wired to the network. I have noticed in the past that a wifi connection with a console will be noticeably different. If it is already then more power to you Edited June 23, 2017 by chef
hjason7812 34 Posted July 11, 2017 Author Posted July 11, 2017 ok now the ps4 has stopped supporting the ip address method and the dlna doesn't work either any eta on an app?
Luke 42077 Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 @@hjason7812 why do you feel it has stopped supporting ip addresses? I just tested and it seems to be fine.
hjason7812 34 Posted July 11, 2017 Author Posted July 11, 2017 because when i did it i get a message saying this is an unsupported task. i have the ps4 pro maybe they changes something

Luke 42077 Posted July 12, 2017 Posted July 12, 2017 Where exactly was that message? Can you tell me the sequence of button presses that led to that? thanks !
hjason7812 34 Posted July 12, 2017 Author Posted July 12, 2017 (edited) Where exactly was that message? Can you tell me the sequence of button presses that led to that? thanks ! Sure, i opened the browser and put in the ip plus port number and it came up this is an unsupported action or something along those lines. The other way emby.tv.media or whatever doesn't work either it just sits there after pressing on something. i know it isn't my server because it is a 6 core server with 32gb's of ram. My ps4 is plugged directly into the modem with a server cable cat6a so that isn't it either. The only thing i can think of is that the ps4 pro has changed something to make these ways not work for emby. I'm fixing to buy the lifetime license but if i can't get an app for the ps4 soon and acknowledgement i won't be buying anything. i'll take a picture and put it on here as to what it says..
