skank 82 Posted April 10, 2021 Author Share Posted April 10, 2021 10 minutes ago, Luke said: You can't really stream a folder structure through the server, so this is something would have to be played just by passing the folder path into the Kodi player. Thanks for responding mate, so this didnt work either with the old emby for kodi? (im beginning to doubt now) Anyway, with the next gen addon, is this possible what luke says? Quickmic can you do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickmic 1486 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 The Emby server loads the index.bdmv file in the DB and therefore also reports this file to next-gen (and the old plugin). I haven't tested plugin in native mode, but the only difference would be the index.bdmv will be loaded in Kodi DB via native filepath. If Kodi can deal with a index.bdmv, there is probably a chance it could work. However, please perform tests yourself, or you have to wait. Frankly this edge case has very low priority and if I should do all the testing here, it will be queued. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 38093 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Quote The Emby server loads the index.bdmv file in the DB Normally we don't, it's just the path to the folder and we don't do any examination of the contents. But I can see on the previous page a bdmv file is mentioned, so that's odd. How was this imported into Emby Server? Is this an strm file pointing to a bdmv?

quickmic 1486 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 In my test case, folder was imported, no strm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 38093 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Right, so when the folder is imported directly into emby server, the path that comes out of the api will be the main bluray folder path and not the bdmv. There is no support for streaming this through the API, or rather, it's highly experimental, so if Kodi can just play the folder directly, you're better off doing that. The only time you'd want to stream it through the server is if there is no direct access to the folder path, like on a remote connection for example.

Jeoiseon 1 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 To @quickmic: I have updated my kodi to 19.1 but it still cannot play the Blu-ray files with the emby-next-gen addon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickmic 1486 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Yes, one problem was the Kodi 19. with Kodi 19.1 it's solved, unfortunatly there is another bug in the plugin. It will be fixed in next update, I'll let you know. Shouldn't take too long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes baby ! Great I can confirm Running kodi 19.1 + this build runs bdmv format ! Thanks guys ! Edit: There are slight audio hickups though, strange But probably this has nothing to do with emby next gen (no where else audio problems) And no, its not the file..

mbguy 38 Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 If I am reading this thread correctly, it seems Emby can play BDMV folders, IF an external player like Kodi is used. If this is true, is it possible to define some settings on Emby Server so when it comes to BDMV folders, an external player will be launched but in all other cases (ie. mkv) the built in Emby player will be used? As far as I know, Emby only has a universal button to control playback via internal or external without specific refinements, unless I haven't found the setting yet. Feedback is appreciated.

This type of option is possible, but given that it's specific to individual client apps, that's really where it would belong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
