Jellyfin Plugin can't connect to "pinned" instance

[psycik]

I've got a remote nextpvr instance with a 6 digit pin.  Can't seem to authenticate with it (also have the same issue with the ios nextpvr app).

Here are the jelly fin logs when going from dashboard to the "live Tv" option:

This following bit, does that reset?  May be a sub question.  If so after what period (or is it server restart.

I saw in the logs a log of other system service accesses, but I think they were the browser access I was uses to get the logs down.

I've got a remote nextpvr instance with a 6 digit pin.  Can't seem to authenticate with it (also have the same issue with the ios nextpvr app).

Did you try changing it back to a 4 digit pin and see if it works?

I recall this thread where there was an issue with sub's Andriod app not handling a PIN longer than 9 digits. Maybe the ios app won't work with a pin more than the default 4 digits.

[mvallevand]

The first thing I checked when I saw the post on github was the plugin source it is a text field of unlimited length and 6 digit PIN are accepted by the API . The only thing that might be an issue is if the PIN included a semi-colon.

psycik, if you PM me your PIN, I can tell you if the plugin is calculating the challenge correctly plus what to look for in config.xml to see if they match.

Yeah I had the same thought. No colons or semi-colons in there?

[mvallevand]

Actually the colon isn't an issue since it is hashed.

I think the iOS app uses it as a delimiter when you're entering it.
