Transfer servers w/o re-inviting users

[hackthis02 130]

Not sure if this is right forum but I'm about to upgrade my emby server and I have a few family members that use it and aren't technically proficient. Is there away to transfer their emby.connect account to the new server without having to have to invite them again?

Hi, no, but this will be improved in the future. Thanks.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I'm curious if there's been any headway with this?  I also have a few family members and friends that use my server and I'd like to not inconvenience them every time I move to new hardware.

Hi.  If you will move hardware and/or re-install your server frequently, then you may want to setup a domain and have your users connect directly via that address.  That way, you can be sure it will remain constant.

Thanks @ebr for the suggestion.  I also thought of that being one option, but I wasn't keen on forcing users to manually type in a hostname.  The emby.media/pin method is pretty easy for the less tech savvy.
