Hello everyone, like the title says, I was just wondering if there was a way to set Emby so that when I open the app on TV or mobile it will start up at the User Login screen? Right now it goes into the previous user that was using it and then I have to Sign Out and then select the new user. I want this option so my son doesn't have access to the full library.

 

Thank you for your responses!

Hi.  When you log in on the mobile or web app, uncheck the "Remember me" box on that screen.

 

Which TV app?

I use LG and Samsung TV's. Also, I don't see a "Remember Me" option in either, not even on Windows.

 

This is the page I would like to come up when I open the apps, this is on windows but you get the idea.

Hi.  Do none of your users have passwords?

 

i believe the "Remember Me" option is on the password entry screen.

I didn't, I set up mine with out and that seemed to do the job, thank you!

 

One last question, is there a way to hide accounts from showing in certain devices?

You would have to use user device access to restrict them from certain devices. Or you can just hide them from login screens of all devices.

So if I hide my user from log in screens, I won't be able to log into it again until I re-enable it.

Hiding users just forces you to use manual login.

Thank you for your help, what I ended up doing was hiding both one account from local network and putting a password on the other and that fulfilled what I wanted to do so my son can only use his account.
