Emby Web App on my fridge


Recommended Posts

It's good it's working for you but I can see future updates being hit and miss.  It might be good to not allow automatic app updates in the fridge and be picky about updating emby

You are absolutely correct. But the problem is I really don't have a source to check to see when it's good to update. They way I see it I guess I would be sucker uhhh.. intrepid adventurer.

I think for now though I'll probably freeze updates as everything seems to be running well

Can you please attach an emby server log from after using it? I'm curious to see what the browser's user agent is. Thanks.

The poster app would be awesome on the fridge.

It would be cool but automating it would be tricky, I.E. how would you automatically bring up a browser and open it to the right page?  Of course it's easy to just pin a web page to the home screen.

Just when I thought I was out of the woods, the trees keep pulling me in!!

Well I jumped on the Lifetime Emby pass , over course, and I built a NAS. Well I bought a Synology box and threw in some memory and drives and installed Emby on it. Works great on every client except, you guessed it, the Samsung Fridge. For some reason it doesn't even try to connect. On the fridge I have to connect through the emby site. It sees the NAS but won't connect.

 

Suddenly cannot connect remotely? : r/emby

That's not the actual image from the screen but that's the message

It doesn't seem like that would be fridge related.  Are you using the new servers ip or a web url

Web URL, but your question just reminded me. At no point was I prompted to enter the server ip. Thanks for the help. I’ll let you know how it goes

What are you trying to use, the web browser?

Yes, there is no app for the fridge. I got it to work by "adding server".  What threw me was the fact that it was listed as a server but didnt work. Once I added it everything was fine.

So I'm out of the woods again, for now.

Thanks for the feedback.

Just an update. Things run pretty good on the fridge although "pause' pretty much means "freeze" on the fridge. Once the fridge sleeps that's it and the tuner is usually held open until. Guys I'm begging you though, PLEASE MAKE AN APP FOR THE FRIDGE!!!! Browser page is fine and all but an app would be gold. Gui through the fridges' browser is pretty bad.

Well since the latest DSM 7.2 update and appropriate Emby update things have been great on all devices EXCEPT.. you guessed it, the FRIDGE!

The video plays fine but there is no audio for live tv. Some recorded content plays fine but other stuff doesn't. It seems the audio is direct while the video is being transcoded.

For the life of me I can't find where to force the audio to be transcoded to see if that helps.

Hi there, let's look at an example. Please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. Thanks!

No love? No ideas guys?

That's what I'm using now. That's the only way for me to use Emby on the fridge is through the hosted web app.

OK can you try it again later today and make sure to refresh the page in the browser so that your server dashboard displays a hosted web app version of 4.7.13.14 or greater when you play something. Let me know how that compares. Thanks.

Ok I refreshed and it’s now 4.7.13.15

 The sound is back! Thanks

What happened to make the sound mute ?

It was treating ac3 audio as supported when your fridge doesn’t support it.

Ok I see. Thanks for the help. Nice to have the TV back at the breakfast nook working again

I could have sworn I did a couple of refreshes though. Oh well

 

PS: looking at that photo the reflection in the screen looks crazy. LOL

I look nothing like that. HAHA

And the adventure continues... well I updated to the latest version of Emby for Synology and everything was fine. Unbeknownst to me Samsung put out what looks like a major update for the whole OS. Well at least the gui in several apps and the browser itself. Now when I open the Emby web app to login to Emby on Synology the app errors out and tells me to get the latest version of Emby and won't connect. I have the latest version of Emby. Just goes back to my list of current and previous servers. Help is needed from the great sages of Emby.

Hi, what version of Emby for Samsung do you have? What version of Emby Server do you have?
