network settings documentation

[justinrh 260]

I'm thinking the network settings documentation is out-of-date.  There are settings missing, arranged differently, and terminology is different.

https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44001159601-network-hosting-settings

The first thing I noticed, for example, was that the UI says
"External domain:
If you have a dynamic DNS or domain name, enter it here, without protocol or port. Emby apps will use it when connecting remotely. This field is required when used with a custom ssl certificate. Example: mydomain.com."

But doc page has a section "External WAN Address".

Hi, thanks for reporting. We'll take a look.

I'll review the info but most likely will be reworking some of these pages shortly or just removing/replacing them.

If you're trying to setup remote access try this guide "Remote Access"
https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44002137137-remote-setup

This covers the basics of getting remote access to your Emby server.  I'm following up this week with more advanced details that go into SSL setup, cert conversions, advanced port mapping and maybe Emby use behind proxies.

@cayars, there are a couple of typos on that page also.

 

Please look at https://support.emby.media/support/solutions/articles/44001848833-cinema-intros

I think "navigating to Playback -> Cinema Intros" should be "... Server -> Cinema Intros".
