XtreamDownloader, a direct DOWNLOAD and EXPORT tool (Win7-Win10) for IPTV VOD, to be used with IPTV providers who uses Xtream Codes. Especially made for users who want to use IPTV VOD DIRECTLY in Emby, so they can use all the library options in Emby, like WATCHED status and RESUME points with Video On Demand from their IPTV provider. UPDATE: Until further notice, this tool is end of life. https://torrentfreak.com/xtream-codes-iptv-system-targeted-in-massive-police-operation/

I have a very specific scenario here. I have a stream file (.strm) that points to a .m3u8 stream. I am able to play this stream but it doesn't pick the highest quality. The .m3u8 file: #EXTM3U #EXT-X-VERSION:3 #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=614000,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=564000,RESOLUTION=480x270,CODECS="avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2" 270/prog_index.m3u8 #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=1118000,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=1028000,RESOLUTION=640x360,CODECS="avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2" 360/prog_index.m3u8 #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=1998000,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=1828000,RESOLUTION=960x540,CODECS="avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2" 540/prog_index.m3u8 #EXT-X-STREAM-INF:BANDWIDTH=3318000,AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=3028000,RESOLUTION=1280x720,CODECS="avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2" 720/prog_index.m3u8 Emby is not picking the 1280x720 stream. It is using the 480x270 stream. I have a excellent internet connection and am able to even stream 4k comfortably. Why would a 720p stream be difficult for Emby? I have also set 4k as home network quality. I get about 100mpbs download speeds.

Please click "Like this" and share it if you want to support this feature. Thank you ! Hello, There is a Kodi addon call "gdrive" from ddurdle who can read videos (original and transcoding version) directly from Google Drive. Why not build on this idea to integrate Google Drive as source directly in Emby Server ? In addition, Emby could generate automatically the STRM files from one or many Drive folders. And transcodings are already available with Drive so no need to transcode with Emby server. What do you think ? ------------- Three reasons why this feature will be useful and awesome: 1. Cloud is the future and today the cost is affordable. I have a Google Drive Unlimited for $50/month (ie $600/year) and I have unlimited space that is secured against crashes. Knowing the cost of hard drive and the cost of power consumption, its a very good deal. 2. Google Drive transcode video file. This provides different stream quality like Youtube (1080p, 720p, 480p and 360p) and the "image quality/compression ratio" is very satisfying. I can play 720p video on my poor 4 Mbits DSL. 3. You don't need to have a big server. Personally, I opted for a little dedicated server (Kimsufi 2G) for the cost and I can leave it run 24/7! Furthermore, me and my friends can watch movies from anywhere! Basics features that should be included: GOOGLE APPS OAUTH2 for activation and permission playing transcoded version (MP4 360p, 480p, 720p & 1080p) directly into Emby's app playing original file (avi, mkv, mp4) directly into Emby's app import embedded subtitles porwerful script module for multiple folder scanning and STRM generating

I wanted to add the vod streams from my iptv provider into emby and make it look like the other movie and tv show directories. I couldn't find a free tool to do this ridiculously simple task, and so I decided to put my python skills to work for other my other emby enthusiasts. Hope it helps someone. Depending on the type of m3u file you have, one of these scripts may support it, or you may need to post a few lines of your TV shows and Movies in order for me to add parsing for it. Check below in the updates to see which script you want to use depending on how your m3u file is formatted. Type 1: https://github.com/silence48/m3u2strm/blob/master/m3u2strm.py Type 2: https://github.com/silence48/m3u2strm/blob/master/m3u2strm-2.py UPDATES code Last Updated 3/26/2020 Update on 3/26/2020 I have released a new version which is more versitile. You can find it at https://github.com/silence48/m3u2strm/tree/nextgen This one handles more m3u types, and has support for live tv streams (though live tv is not yet implemented.) I was able to generate about 10000 stream files with this in less than 2 minutes. Update on 3/14/2020 In order to make this script more globally compatible... if anyone can PM me the first 25 lines of your m3u file for your VOD TV (please edit out your username and password before sending it) it will allow me to add parsing for other companies m3u files. The current supported formats are as follows: For TV Shows: #EXTINF:0 group-title="TV VOD",HD : My Hero Academia S04E10 #EXTGRP:TV VOD http://URL (for daily running shows like "The Late Show" or "Jimmy Fallon" #EXTINF:0 group-title="TV VOD",HD : Jimmy Fallon 2019 12 20 Eddie Murphy 720p WEB x264-XLF #EXTGRP:TV VOD http://tURL For Movies: #EXTINF:0 group-title="Movie VOD",HD : The Adventure Of A R I My Robot Friend 2020 #EXTGRP:Movie VOD http://URLS Update on 3/18/2020 I have created a second script for the other VOD m3u files mentioned. It can be found located at : https://github.com/s...r/m3u2strm-2.py Eventually when I have some time I will make it just a single script, right now the code is not very clean, I need to break stuff into separate classes and functions, then I can have a single script to parse them all, but for now this works. This one supports TV shows in the following formats: #EXTINF:-1,|FR| Blindspot S01 |FR| Blindspot 01x12 - Super soldat http://serverIPTV.co...ssword/9975.mkv #EXTINF:-1,|FR| Burger Quiz S01 |FR| Burger Quiz 01x05 http://serverIPTV.co...word/751209.mkv and Movies in this format: #EXTINF:-1,|FR| Le plan B http://serverIPTV.co...word/755418.mkv

Hi all! I've been working on this for quite some time now, first as a bash script, now as a console app written in C#. Please check it out an give feedback! I am atm using Jellyfin and Kodi, so I am not 100 that everything works with Emby. To run it in Windows, first open a cmd-window with administrator rights and then cd to the directory where you've downloaded the file, then type m2strm.exe /? to get the help content. To run it in Linux, you need first need to install Mono, in Debian that is: sudo apt-get install mono-devel mono-vbnc Then run it with mono m2strm.exe M3U8 is the same as m3u_plus. Download it from github under Releases here: https://github.com/trix7777/m2strm

Good evening, I have a problem with the ‘Emby for Kodi Next Gen’ plugin. The main problem is that it either doesn’t want to start playing and/or giving me a ‘Playback error’. My library only contains .strm files in which are paths to video files on a mounted Rclone drive (using RealDebrid and Rclone_RD). When trying to play these files there is no loading symbol the screen flickers a bit, screen goes black (almost as if it wants to start playing) but then instantly exits out and goes back to the home screen. I use the Kodi skin: Titan Bingie Mod (but tested multiple). I’ve ran multiple tests: . Playing the .strm files from the Emby WebUI and from Android works fine . When using Kodi’s base skin (Estuary) the video does eventually start playing . Running ‘Emby for Kodi Next Gen’ in native mode works fine (so the problem for me lies in Add-on mode) . I tried using .strm files that have the RealDebrid generated links directly inside them (so not linked to my Rclone mounted drive). These files do show the loading symbol, but sadly don’t start playing aswell. So since it does work (kind of) in the Estuary skin I thought it could have been the problem of ‘Titan Bingie Mod’. But like mentioned, native mode does work. Additionally, I tested Jellyfin’s Kodi plugin in addon-mode and this one works fine too. So maybe it’s not directly the skins fault but something else going on?

Bonjour à tous, Je viens de découvrir grâce à Emby les fichiers "*.strm". Une fonction qui peut être extrêmement pratique ! J'ai fais quelques essais en mettant des vidéos sur Uptobox, j'ai ensuite copier le lien de téléchargement pour créer mon ficher .strm. La démarche fonctionne très bien et Emby lit correctement le film sur TV, smartphone et navigateur. Cependant Emby est installer sur un NAS synology DS 720+ et lorsque je lance un film il transcode avec un cpu de 90%... Est-il possible de récupérer uniquement le liens de streaming? Avez-vous une solution pour éviter le transcodage? D'avance merci pour votre aide

Bonjour, Cela fait 3 fois qu'EMBY s'emballe et sature complètement mon NAS 220+. Je mets à disposition mes logs si vous voulez pour savoir ce qui est à l'origine de tout cela. J'ai un doute sur mes fichiers STRM que je suis en train d'essayer. Je partage pour améliorer un outil que j'adore. Et merci à @cayarset @ebr qui sont supers sur le forum. embyserver.txt embyserver-63758074482.txt

Hello, I'm trying to use STRM files as a means to have a movie file appear in two separate libraries as I have seen mentioned in other threads. I have read over the STRM guide as well as searched the forums. I have tried many forms of URLS has pulled from the transcode logs like: http://localhost:8096/emby/videos/407582/hls1/main/0.ts...but the best I have been able to do is get a stream that plays for 5 seconds and stops. What is the format for the URL specified in the STRM file when you are trying to stream something from your local Emby server?

I created a script to parse http links from an m3u file and create a folder structure with strm files for (selective) movies and tv shows... tested on ubuntu and a QNAP nas... might be of interest to others in this forum! https://github.com/h0me5k1n/iptv-strmmaker This works for the m3u file i use as an input! Results for others may vary!

Hi guys Does anyone know how strm files can be created in google drive thanks

I have a .STRM file and have disabled transcoding for the user. In the dashboard the content shows up as direct played but it is evident this is not happening because there is massive stutter. I looked in the log files and Emby is still using FFmpeg to transcode it even though it should be direct play. I am using Emby Web Client on Chrome.

Hi everyone, I use only .strm files and everything works fine, so the files that are in the cloud are all .mp4 with AAC 2ch audio. Nothing to complain about. Among the files, I have since DVDScreen, 480p, 702p and 1080p and all of them play on clients. Now I intend to also have a 4K file and would like to know if the .strm will be played on the clients, stating that I turn off all transcoding options while keeping direct playback on. Thanks for any info.

If this item I marked in red not selected then subtitles not display in movie

Hi everyone, how are you? first, thank you for this wonder tool called Emby. So, reckoning about 1 week to the present time, my .strm files with the links in the format (H264 with AAC audio) that does not transcode, started suddenly to transcode and use my upload band, with that, all my clients were having problems of recurrent slowness. I imagine it should be in a possible update / maintenance of the Emby player that affected this, can you check? I am urgently needed due to completing 1 week of rework on account of this. Thanks for your attention, thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I started to use MediaBrowser 3 and fell in love with all the customization options that neither Plex nor Kodi offer. While I do have an issue with the android app always transcoding even though all my files are mp4(h264/aac), I still use the external player option (MX player) just because I like its touch controls so its not an issue with me. I was wondering if there was a way to flatten one season shows in the the Web Interface and android app. It's just that it makes little sense to have to click into a show and then have to click its one and only season. Also is there a way to direct play a strm file especially for mp4 files located on a server not live rtmp/etc. It's forced to transcode and does not allow you to skip forward.
