ewokuk 7 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 I have Emby server running on win10 pro. I cannot see the dlna server on either of my 2 samsung TV's or my android phone. I also cannot connect using the emby app on the tv or the phone (using the local ip of the server pc), it just refuses to connect. All devices are connected via wifi to the same Asus AC86U running Merlin firmware. I have tried disabling windows firewall completely as well as rebooting the pc. UPNP on the router is turned on. I have no other firewall software on the pc. It isn't just emby as I also have serviio and that is the same, it used to work a few months ago but now the tv cannot see it at all. I don't know what has changed during that time, nothing I am aware of, same router, same pc, same tv. I did change the wifi card in the pc a while ago to an Intel AX200 card (so I could use wifi direct) but I don't even know if it is possible for that to affect it, the wifi is working perfectly. However wifi Direct also doesn't work, when I select a video to send to the tv, the pc can see the TV since its in the list of devices, and the tv does show that it is attempting to connect, but it then fails. However if I set the tv up as an additional wireless screen in windows, i can put things on that screen, so clearly the 2 devices can communicate with each other over their wifi connections, they just refuse to work with dlna, wifi direct, or Emby. I am all out of ideas, it is clearly somehow related to the pc but I have no clue what. 1
Neminem 1519 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 I fixed this by assigning the correct ip to the emby server. Check your emby server dashboard. Is that the correct local ip address ? if not goto network in the emby server and bind the right ip and check if you can connect.

I have at last managed to get it all working though. I power cycled the router and suddenly it works. No idea how that caused the issue as all devices were connected and working fine, they just wouldnt talk to each other properly. Edited September 25, 2020 by ewokuk fixed 1
