I use VLC as my player since it has features that I use regularly. To name a few - Snapshot - Frame by Frame Playback - HUD (Playback Controls) hides very fast However, one thing that I wish were possible is to add audio and subtitle language on a per series basis. The way to implement this is simply by adding {audio-lang} and {subtitle-lang} to the argument list. Right now, the only arguments that can be "imported" from emby are {path}, {ms} and {Seconds}. Among these, only {path} can really be used since the other two cannot be sent from the external player back to Emby. So even if you stop in the middle of a movie/episode, it will not get that timecode. Unless I'm getting something wrong here, those two arguments aren't really useful. I think adding {audio-lang} and {subtitle-lang} would be much more useful and can be implemented the same way it does with Emby's Player, which I'm assuming uses the id for each track. As an example, I'll use VLC and MPV. VLC: {path} --audio-track={audio-lang} --sub-track={subtitle-lang} MPV: {path} --aid={audio-lang} --sid={subtitle-lang} In both these cases, {audio-lang} and {subtitle-lang} would be stream numbers/integers. My current VLC arguments are: {path} --audio-language=en,jp,any --sub-language=eng The reason I do not like this is because having eng as my audio does not select forced subtitles or "Signs and Songs". Would love to see this implemented if possible.

So I'm a new user for emby and I loved it right from the start. It's easier to use than all other media servers. However, I noticed a couple problems 1.With reading music tags I have a vast collection of music files, and I arrange them in folders. I have complete albums in a single folder, and singles in another folder. However, when i added the files to Emby, it was a mess. (See screenshot to understand). It was super frustrating. Note that Kodi and Plex read the tags just as they are. 2. Emby on Kodi I love Kodi. As a result, I always connect Kodi with my Media servers (and if they fail I use Kodi as is.) However, it's drag to get emby to work well. For instance, I have episodes which have VTT subtitles. Since no player apart from VLC can be able to show VTT subtitles, I have added it as an external player. The problem is that after I'm done playing the episode, the watched status changes back to unwatched and if I visit Emby on a browser, the episode is unwatched (mark you i already watched it). Those two are the most pressing.

Hi there, I recently updated to emby premire in my new WIN10 configuration, until now I was using MPC-HC as an external player in the MB3 version. Now I can't configure MPC-HC as the external player. It seems to be so easy but I can't make i works: C:\Program Files\MPC-HC\mpc-hc64.exe in the player path area {path} in the command line arguments area There are no more options, but it doesn't work, always the same error when trying to reproduce any movie... Error launching process: Type error: Cannot read property 'toString' of undefined. Emby works fine with the internal player, there are no problems with the archives which can be opened without problem with the MPC-HC when tried directly. What can I do? Many thanks in advance.
