| Question | Answer | |----------|--------| | | No. Kirlif’s setup works perfectly with the free core. Premium is only needed for mobile sync , offline playback , or Live TV on certain tuners. | | Can I run multiple Emby instances on the same host? | Absolutely. Just create separate Docker volumes ( emby‑config‑1 , emby‑config‑2 ) and map different host ports (e.g., 8097 , 8098 ). | | What if my ISP blocks port 8096? | Use a reverse proxy (Caddy/Nginx) on port 443 with a domain name, or employ a Cloudflare Argo Tunnel for seamless access. | | Is the Docker image ARM‑compatible? | Yes – the tag kirlif/emby:latest automatically pulls the correct architecture (amd64, arm64, arm/v7). | | Where can I report bugs? | Open an issue on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/kirlif/emby/issues . For urgent security concerns, email security@kirlif.dev . |
