Streaming

The Streaming interface can be accessed here: EMBY Login

 

EMBY Regulations and Notes:

  • I ask that you periodically change your password via the settings page within EMBY.
  • The server can only support a few streams at once, depending on the quality of each. Here is a general overview of its capabilities:
  • Stream Quality  
      Maximum Streams*
    1080p
    1
    720p
    2
    480p
    4
    360p
    6

    *This is only an estimate, actual results may vary.

  • Please refrain from streaming at 1080p to avoid overloading the server.
  • If you are having problems starting a stream, the server is probably overloaded. You can try either reducing the quality of the stream or waiting ~30 minutes and trying again.
  • Please report any broken, low quality, mislabelled, or otherwise problematic media to admin@savagenet.us/old. I'm expecting everyone to help keep the library accurate and functional.
  • You can stream to any device that supports httpss. (This should be every device...) Certain streaming devices are directly supported by EMBY, such as ChromeCast. Supported devices will appear on the top menu of the EMBY web interface and allow you to stream to it.
  • The EMBY for Android App is hit or miss. It works on some devices but not on others. There seems to be a better chance of it working on 4.4 or later.
  • EMBY is restarted every day between 4:30 AM and 4:31 AM. This is to prevent a bug from hogging CPU time. If you are already streaming something prior to 4:30, you should not be affected, but the menus will stop working for about 30 seconds.

Contributions:

I'm perfectly happy to cover the general costs for the server, but there was approximately $250 worth of startup cost that I'd appreciate contributions toward.

If you would like to donate or if you have media content you would like to provide, please contact me admin@savagenet.us/old
