chef 3745 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Hi! Yes, this has been requested in the past. Unfortunately, there wasn't a public API to create the plugin. It is against terms and conditions to scrape data from the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 While I think there is a YouTube API where we could gather the data from your channel, the playback has to be fed through the official YouTube player and that can be difficult or not even supported on some platforms so that slows us down on this a bit.

skoog 1 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 If i copy the link to a video it can be played outside youtube with free webplugins. (like pretty photo) If a plugin like that is used maybe we can make a "virtual folder" with youtube videos. Like emby reads a playlist that we have added videos to. That would be nice.

We do play trailers from YT on platforms where we can properly support it but there are some platforms where we just cannot (Roku is one). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
