Multiple profiles with Emby / Jellyfin not working
Posted: 28 Dec 2019, 22:38
Just recently gained some FireTV hardware, Firestick 4k and FireTV Cube 2019 and transitioning from my old LibreElec HTPC.
Was having issues with Kodi and Audio sync on the FireTV platform and many recommended MrMC, so I bought a copy and really like its direction and it also worked on all files that Kodi was unable to play audio in sync, woot
After some testing with my main account using Emby service / local sign in to my Jellyfin server everything working great I decided to setup wife and kid profiles on MrMC. This is where I ran into some trouble, it would seem that perhaps emby service is not separate across MrMC profiles?
I made 2 fresh profiles for wife and kid beside my setup working master profile. But when I load their profiles to sign into there unique Jellyfin libraries the Emby service says its already signed in (presume my master account on other profile) but no library is populated TV or movies.
If I click sign out and login to there Jellyfin libraries they load fine, but when I return to master profile all libraries are blank and I have to dig down to services settings and login again. This repeats every time a user logs into there MrMC profile if any other user has used MrMC since their last login. Its like Emby local / manual sign in only supports 1 user profile at a time on MrMC? Not very WAF and kid friendly.
Really hoping I am missing something as I am not finding many hit on Google just this old thread with same issue on an Emby server

Please help anyone, I just want multiple profiles on MrMC for family with their own Jellyfin libraries (especially important for parental controls) Thank-You.
