Install ​

  1. Open AN Player and go to the Plugins Screen.
  2. Find Emby in the official plugins list.
  3. Install the plugin and open its configuration page.

Configure Plugin ​

Emby requires your server address and login credentials.

  1. Open the plugin configuration page from AN Player.
  2. Enter the Server URL — this is the web address of your Emby server. Examples:
    • http://192.168.1.100:8096
    • https://emby.example.com
  3. Sign in using your Emby username and password. The plugin will obtain an access token automatically.
  4. Tap Save.

The plugin stores your server URL, access token, user ID, and device information. Your password is not saved into the plugin configuration.

If Nothing Loads ​

If your media library doesn't appear after saving, check the following:

  • The server URL may be wrong — try opening it in your phone's browser to verify.
  • Your credentials may be incorrect — try logging in through the Emby web interface.
  • Your server may not be reachable from your current network — if you're outside your home, make sure remote access is configured in Emby's settings.
  • The access token may have expired — sign in again to refresh it.
