Emby Theater | Setup.exe error

[bigembyfan 63]

Hi, I have downloaded Emby Theater for Windows 10 from here: https://emby.media/emby-theater.html

 

After completing the download, I click to run the setup.exe but always get the following error - 'Application download did not succeed. Check your network..'

 

My network is fine and I tested with my local firewall off but still the same issue. Looking at the error log I can see this:

	* Activation of http://embydata.com/downloads/theater/release6/Emby.Theater.Installer.application resulted in exception. Following failure messages were detected:
		+ Downloading http://embydata.com/downloads/theater/release6/Emby.Theater.Installer.application did not succeed.
		+ Unable to connect to the remote server
		+ An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions 104.27.191.149:80

I'm not certain if it's the problem but browsing to: 104.27.191.149:80 gives a CloudFlare error:
 

 

Should it be attempting to download from embydata.com and not the IP address?

 

Thanks for any help.

Hi, strange, I've never seen this before. Are you running a VPN?

Yeah strange one! No VPN running, just WIndows Defender + a Firewall but it's ok as I just downloaded it from Gitlab - saw in another thread that it was possible that way.

 

Cheers
