HI there, have you setup your own emby server?

Emby provides server software for you to install for serving your own media; they do not run a media access service.  You need either your own server, or maybe to share a friend's.

This is a good read to get an overview of the Emby eco system.

What did you expect to get out of that subscription? What doesn't work?

So what did you do?  Have you installed the server?  Have you linked to your (or another) server?  What client are you even running?  Where did you get your subscription, and what is it described as being for?

Hi, are you trying to connect to your own Emby Server, or someone else's? Have you taken a look at our quick start guide?

Quick Start

What is it that you do not understand?

I have had Emby for several years and streamed movies from my desktop to my 3 televisions for those years.

That worked until November 2023.

In December 2023 (this year) it stopped working.

Since then I have re-installed Emby a few times and it always worked on my desktop pc.

But it still did not work on my televisions.

It always asks for my password and rejects it everytime.

I have reset my password a few times this month and it rejects it everytime.

It recognizes me on the desktop (shows my name) and it knows my email address since it sends me emails and all of this information shows up on the dash board.

The firewall has been reset per Emby's directions and suggestions.

The re-installations shows Emby in my programs. But double clicking on that shows no response at all.

So, if you have any additional valid suggestions please let me know.

But read lines 3, 4,an 5 of this response before asking me another question that has already been answered.

Are you using Emby Connect or a local login?  If Connect, have you tried clearing the users' links to Connect and then redefining them?
