mwake 0 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) Sorry if this has been asked before... I am using Kodi on my Intel much and everything is fine. However I read and article which mentioned emby being better at managing as a library than Kodi built in one. I also heard it's good at managing media over different devices which would be cool for me as at the moment the only cross device media library capability I have at home is using the online Trakt service. Equipment wise, on my main machine I only use Kodi add-on streaming services like Genesis and What the Furk, ones that create strm files. I don't have any local media. My question is can I use emby and link to the add-on strm files folder? And if so, do you think am I gaining a advantage using emby like this or should I just stick to Trakt service? Many thx for any help. Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk Edited July 16, 2016 by mwake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) While we do not support the use of illegal add-ons, the Emby server does have strm support. It is fairly limited at this time - the only thing it will hold is the watch status - there is no resume points. You can follow this thread: http://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/36118-feature-request-for-strm-files-to-be-fully-supported/ I use strm for netflix. The strm files are added to my emby library, the add-on adds them to Kodi and when I launch them in Kodi, it launches the correct add-on to read them.
