Launch Emby Theater instead of Server

[burbi58 0]

Hello All,

 

New to EMBY, making the switch from WMC, and having a small issue.  For my wifes sake, I want to launch EMBY Theater.  She will be more comfortable with this layout as it is really user friendly and she will be able to find everything she needs.  I've installed Theater on three PC's.  It works great on two of them, however, the one I really need it on is the one that also is the Emby Server.  Whenever I try to launch Theater on this PC, it doesn't do anything because server is already running.  I don't want to use the web based interface for everyday use of Emby.  Is there a way to get Theater to launch on the PC running Server also?

Thanks in advance!

They will launch independent of each other and I have them both running on my main system with no issues. Edited October 23, 2017 by PrincessClevage

Not sure what happened.  Had to uninstall theater, then re-install.  Now it is working properly.

Glad you got it squared away.
