DNS

/!\ I used bind9 on my local server to add mb3admin.com entry for all devices ( like android app ) Otherwise in hosts fie :

<your_server> mb3admin.com

Optionnal (electron app - Emby Theater) main.js update

C:\Users\<YOUR_USER>\AppData\Roaming\Emby-Theater\system\electronapp
Add after app.on('window-all-closed', function () { block L:18
To accept self certificate

app.on('certificate-error', (event, webContents, url, error, certificate, callback) => {
        event.preventDefault()
        callback(true)
})

On your web server

• Create /var/www/mb3admin.com folder
• In /var/www/mb3admin.com/ create file index.php with

<?php
if (false){
	$file = 'data.log';
	$content = file_get_contents($file);
	$content .= date('Y-m-d H:i:s').' : '.$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'].' URL : '.$_SERVER['REDIRECT_URL'].' Query : '.json_encode($_REQUEST)."\r\n";
	file_put_contents($file, $content);
}

if ($_SERVER['REDIRECT_URL'] == '/admin/service/registration/validate'){
	header('content-type:application/json');
	$date = new DateTime();
	$date->add(new DateInterval('P14D'));
	echo '{"featId":"'.$_POST['feature'].'","registered":true,"expDate":"'.$date->format('Y-m-d').'","key":"'.$_POST['key'].'"}';
	
}elseif ($_SERVER['REDIRECT_URL'] == '/admin/service/registration/validateDevice'){
	header('content-type:application/json');
	echo '{"cacheExpirationDays":21,"resultCode":"GOOD","message":"Device Valid"}';
}

• Create file .htaccess

Allow from all Options -Indexes <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
<IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
    Options -MultiViews
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
    Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
