lenfari 0 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Hi all, newbie here. I'm wondering if I can play iso files stored in my local Windows file server with Kodi as an external player via my nearly purchased EMBY Android TV app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37178 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Hi, the real question is whether or not Kodi has added the feature on android to receive intents to play video from other players. If they have, then yes you can. My guess is probably, yes, but I don't know for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So right now, according to what I leant from EMBY WIKI, I just need to install EMBY on my file server and set optional path for each hard drive for the direct access, right?

I tried with an optional path. However, can't find Kodi as an external player via the EMBY app, and VLC can't play ISO as an external player, strange.
