New Emby Server 4.0.0.0 breaks MrMC Client access Topic is solved

[Montoya]

not sure what to tell you, still works here

4.0.0.1 server, iOS , tvOS and OSX... all good

Had you restarted your Emby Server when you disabled external access ?

Tested the previous solution in Emby link provided in previous post, for the Emby Apple TV app to see if that works with MrMC.

iOS:
No manual and pin-request sign-in MrMC.
In Emby iOS app it all works by manual sign-in. Even Safari web browser access from iPad to my local server in safari tot IP:8096 works with manual sign-in.

tvOS:
Only pin request sign-in works.
In Emby tvOS app it all works by manual sign-in.

Seems like MrMC doesn't like Emby WINDOWS server or the other way around

Question about the API call in MrMC to Emby Server.

Got a reply from Luke (Emby Dev) describing current problems and his comment to that:

Only thing i can think of based on that is that they are calling one of the api methods to get system info, and they are assuming the WanAddress value will actually have a value, as opposed to handling it being null.

fixed manual sign in when external access is disabled... found the issue ,need to rebuild iOS for manual sign in testing and fix

look for 3.8 tvOS testflight to test it, it should be in the next version

Thanks

Was it the API call just like Luke described, causing the issue ?

MrMC connection issues are only present when Remote Access is disabled in Emby Server (from 4.0.x upwards).

All my issues in this topic are fixed in MrMC 3.8.0 (tvOS and iOS)
