rbjtech 4287 Posted August 8, 2022 Share Posted August 8, 2022 What has come out of this proof of concept thought @chef is some great groundwork for a 'spotlight' channel ... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is it would be very likely to be several seconds out of sync. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbjtech 4287 Posted August 9, 2022 Share Posted August 9, 2022 So as a proof of concept - are we concluding that it will not work and we are abandoning the project as a plugin ? If yes, I agree with the outcome and this was the whole point of doing it as a proof of concept. I'd much rather close this thread (and edit the first post) rather than leave people hanging that this is going to deliver something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chef 3746 Posted August 9, 2022 Author Share Posted August 9, 2022 I would leave this open as a feature request. Netflix had intro skip, then Amazon, then Plex, and finally a while later... Emby has it. So, Amazon has watch party, Plex has had watch together for a couple years. I figure... eventually emby will have this ability. Just not yet.

Sure - I didn't mean close the Feature Request - I meant close this Plugin Thread Also to note The Emby Introskip Plugin is still functionally better than both the Amazon and Plex 'Introskip' (as it also does end credits, editing etc) - and is still functionally superior to the Emby Core Introskip feature as well - which is probably on-par with the Plex implementation. Unless we can innovate, be the first, or do something better than the competition - then my personal view is releasing something that is not only 2nd (3rd/4th in this case..) and inferior to the competition is not where anybody wants to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solidsnakex37 42 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I'm sad this hasn't been implemented from the Emby team yet, when both of the competitions have it. I just came from Jellyfin and the SyncPlay was a game changer, can create a room and us friends can watch in sync. If someone needs to step away it pauses for everyone. I hope this is in the works from Emby, because this is a highly used feature on my server that I can't use anymore. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chef 3746 Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) Sync-Play. Welp jelly-fish pride themselves on being open source, so where is the repo for this SyncPlay, and I'll add it to Emby without blinking an eye. They had no issues taking Emby source code, so I have absolutely not issues implementing this SyncPlay from them into Emby. Anyone have the open source SyncPlay url?

pünktchen 1259 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Jellyfin has build it into its server: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/blob/master/Jellyfin.Api/Controllers/SyncPlayController.cs https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/tree/master/MediaBrowser.Controller/SyncPlay https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/tree/master/MediaBrowser.Model/SyncPlay 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMackey 26 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I have never given up hope that it will finally come for emby. I would have no problem paying for it if it comes as a plugin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samuelqwe 313 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Also @chef, what were the challenges previously with the plugin you were working on? We might be able to use some Emby beta features to get around some of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mookdog 90 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Wow if this finally comes to life I will be so happy. My daughter and son and my grandkids live 2000 miles from me and it would be great to be able to have a watch party with them. Please make this happen Mook 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
