What is the password hashing algorithm for users ?

Hello,

How to change user password hash in database, I could not find anything in forums or docs.

I believe before it was SHA1 but looks like this has been changed or maybe I am wrong about it ?

Kind Regards

Yes Emby uses SHA1 for hashing the local user passwords

Thank you @rechigo !

It is indeed SHA1 but it looks like Emby needs to be restarted if you directly (sqlite3) change user.db fields .

I highly advise against doing this...
