Multiple Servers - set default?

[sfatula 207]

We have 2 Emby servers. Is there any way in an Emby client (we use Roku and TVOS) to see the default connect to server? One of the servers has all live tv and dvr, and that's the server we want to always come up in the client. If we want to access our library of stuff, then, we can switch servers which is fine, but, just want the Live TV server to always come up when the app is run.

Hi, there is no default server option, but they will all remember the last used one.

Personally, Id like to be able to contol which one comes first - there does not seem to be any reasoning to it.  Some roku's in the house have one first, others have the other first.

They are ordered by last used date on each device.

The Apple TV app should allow you to set a user as the default user to log into each time which implies a default server as well.

On the Rokus in the main rooms we use three copies of the emby app for something similar. We have the beta app point to the full content server(s). The normal app is the same with the wife's account as the default. And the unofficial app is setup to only talk to the kids server(s). The unofficial app is great for kids with it's play all in straight order or a random order!

 

In the kids rooms and ssid that vlan can only see thier server(s).

Hi Luke,

Can you check that as it does not seem to be the case on roku's.

I have a backup emby server on windows that is down most of the time - but always appears first on my lounge and bedroom roku's, but  second on my daughters TV.

To resolve this, I have to connect, let it fail, then remove the server from the roku, but whenever it is started back up, it appears first.

We'll take a look at this, thanks.
