Using Emby metadata (stored next to media) for a Kodi-only build?

Greetings!

 

I'm about to setup a laptop with an external drive as an island setup. No connection to my Emby server (or the internet), only running Kodi as the media interface.

 

As this external is a mirror of my Emby media drives, the metadata has already been stored next to media in folders.

 

Is there a way to get Kodi to read the existing metadata in folders instead of re-downloading metadata? Or is the metadata I've already acquired through Emby useless in this scenario?

 

Thanks!

Hi, Emby writes metadata in Kodi-compatible nfo formats, so it should without too much trouble.
