Direct-linking to content items (Live TV)

Hello!

I'm trying to use Emby with an application that takes in a URL and displays a webpage. This application does not support interactivity, and I'd like it to display local antenna TV, served by an on-prem Emby server with a tuner card.

Is there any way to provide it with a single link that automatically opens the correct content item within Emby without requiring any clicking or interactivity? Copying the link while playing simply shows a blank player -- can the content item to be played be provided through some sort of query parameter or similar? I did some research and found a few threads related to this topic from 2020 in which the Emby Team replied that they'd soon be adding m3u8 support to the server, but that was about it.

Thank you!

HI, there's no play url, but you should be able to figure out the video detail screen url and at least get that far.

Yep, I was able to link only as far as the content item detail screen. Beyond that I haven't yet found a solution.
