LanternMyWilly 0 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 (edited) Hi I'm planning on creating an application in asp.net core to play certain movies in certain conditions. Now I'm wondering which approach would be best. I either use the Mediabrowser Nugetpackage or I could make API calls like I would with curl in php to get everything I need. I'm thinking the Nuget way is probably better but I'd like to be sure. Also, when I authenticate a user and play a movie with that user, is there a way to make this event appear in the Dashboard or would I have to make a dashboard myself? (talking about playing a movie in my own app ofc) Thanks! Edited June 14, 2020 by LanternMyWilly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Hi. It depends on exactly what you are building but it sounds like you are building a client app of some sort so I'd use the API. Look at the instructions for start/stop/progress reporting for your playback to appear on the Emby dash. https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LanternMyWilly 0 Posted June 15, 2020 Author Share Posted June 15, 2020 Thanks! Is there a way to use the current webapp video player or should I find another one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14903 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Hi. The web app just utilizes the browser's player so, yes :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
