What is your Emby server version, because Emby beta server 4.5.0.13 (just released 2 days ago) and upwards breaks MrMC Emby Client Service local sign-in. (Amet already knows about that issue)

Did you try to login to the Emby server? I see no connection attempts in this or previous session

Nope it's stable v4.4.3.0. And I was having this exact issue for years.
Can ANYBODY confirm working manual
remote login on port 443?

I hope so, here are my exact steps:
0: Debug logging was activated in a previous session
1: Start MrMC, go to Settings -> Services -> Emby Client and press "Emby Manual Sign-In (local)"
2: Enter credentials
Code: Select all
Protocol: Emby Server (https)
Server address: domain.biz
Port: 443
Username+Password
3: The Sign-In button changes to a Sign-out button. Emby server's activity feed shows "user successfully authenticated" and "user is online".
4: Back to MrMC home screen there's no Emby server to choose, only "MrMC"

ok now it gets really odd. I bypassed Cloudflare and nginx and tried to connect via plain http on port 8080 with exact the same result. I was quite sure that this way it would work. Now I'm running out of ideas...

I'm using port 443 in the setup of my external Emby Clients, to connect to my Emby Server.

okay @amet I found the root of the problem.
Emby server provides a system info page fetched by the clients, it's
Code: Select all
https://embyserverdomain/system/info/public
with some json info,
There's the field LocalAddress which MrMC seems to rely on, although that info is not being needed for a remote connection. Other clients are fine with that missing field, too. In Emby server settings there's an option to overwrite this value, then it doesn't appear on the /system/info/public page anymore. This value is problematic if you have a setup like me. I'm running Emby on a vps behind Cloudflare, so I don't want to publish the real server's IP (WAN) address. And that's exactly what happens if you don't overwrite this value on a VPS setup.
So would you please mind to take a look at it, making the LocalAddress value not mandatory?
Best regards
