Or is it just a bit of smoke and mirrors? I hope it's the latter for performance and my hardware sake but just wondering? Very cool though - I remember there used to be something similar for Windows Home Theatre (i think it was anyway). I believe if you use "Continuous Playback" that transcodes into one large file for x amount of hours and that transcodes. The Playlist style seems to run the file... which is what I do. That method does pop up the Intro Skip button, but I never use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ninko 63 Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Override host address that is used for streaming URLs? Stream type? Catchup source type? Catchup stream container? Emby user? Emby password? Device name? Token? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pünktchen 1258 Posted May 8, 2023 Author Share Posted May 8, 2023 C'mon, that are nearly all options. Are you kidding me? Stream type: EmbyCon and EmbyNextGen is for Kodi only Catchup source type: If you don't know what it is, then it's of no interest for you Emby user and password: Should be self explanatory. It's used for playback progress reporting Device name: VLC, Tivimate or whatever. A device with this name is created in Emby's device list. The Emby user has to be granted to use this device. Token: Just some additional custom security string (password like) to protect the web api endpoints Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to make a plugin that YOU made work at the end of the day. Maybe you should try to help the users of YOUR plugin rather then just assuming they know everything about YOUR plugin!

pünktchen 1258 Posted May 9, 2023 Author Share Posted May 9, 2023 Don't be so oversensitive! Didn't i help you anyway? Btw. me the plugin developer, i've written the plugin mainly for myself, not for others. If others find it usefull - great. If not, it doesn't matter either.

Ninko 63 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I'm not being oversensitive, you've basically just called me stupid just because I wasn't sure what all the options did and if they could help with my problem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday it was a problem with browsers and Roku. How can the export option help you there? If you tell me what you want to do now, maybe i can tell you if it's possible at all.

Ninko 63 Posted May 9, 2023 Share Posted May 9, 2023 I wasn't sure if any of those options would fix the problem with Roku, as many of them mentions "remote connections". From what you're saying, they have nothing to do with it, but I don't know unless I ask, as I didn't make the plugin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what you're saying, they have nothing to do with it Correct. The export are options are for using the data in non Emby apps. The only thing that currently will work for Roku remote connections, is Continous Playback mode. Unfortunately it will often require transcoding of the videos and you cannot set this playback mode only for Roku devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buhochileno 4 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 I would like to help to expand this plugin, mainly been able to make more customizable schedules by time, day, collections, etc, pretty much as with ErsatzTv, which I love, but I would prefer something better integrated into emby...with ersatztv you have all the customization you need for schedules with fillers and so on...but is like an additional streaming service, at least with my setting I loose audio multitrack, subtitles or both..VirtualTV is perfectly integrated into Emby and therefore you keep the media as you have it in emby (subtitles, audio tracks, etc), but is very basic in terms of customization.... I'm a programmer (a couple of decades already...) and can help with this in my own time, no payment required... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ask because the task should be auto-executed after a every guide refresh. Does it fail there also? Regardless of that, the plugin api key isn't used at all for the export task. The error you've posted looks more like a problem with the session token of the logged in user. Btw. in case you don't know it, you don't need the export function of the plugin to work with Emby only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are running the beta server, right? That needs some changes to the plugins rest api endpoint that i haven't implemented yet. I'll release a new version at the weekend. 34 minutes ago, Flippz said: What do u mean by: "Btw. in case you don't know it, you don't need the export function of the plugin to work with Emby only." That was because often users think they have to use all those plugin "export" checkboxes and settings to get the guide data into Emby. But obviously not in your case.
