m3u movies and tv shows as regular movies and tv shows emby libraries?

[Anielarias 25]

is it possible to have m3u movies and tv shows show up as regular movies and tv shows emby libraries? according to the following tools and post it is possible and am in fact was able to generate the strm files but when i click on done for saving the library emby doesn't save/ doesnt do anything.

tools and research so far: 
https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/83633-python-script-to-convert-m3u-file-to-strm-files-with-emby-folder-structure-free/
https://github.com/erdesigns-eu/M3U2STRM
https://github.com/ggiraudon/m3u2strm (the one i used to generate the strm files) 
https://github.com/silence48/m3u2strm
https://github.com/hooray4me/m3u2strm

some screenshots:

Note: assuming this is indeed possible i would like to have a script that runs every "x" amount of time automatically using cron job or something similar for 1 or more sources and combine them all and then do emby do the rest.

Hi, when you click on done where? What exactly did you import into the library?

base on the instructions from here am suppose to point emby to where the strm files are stored but after finish creating the library and click on done/ok to finish that process nothing happens

Did you add any folders? It starts scanning the library.

i didn't give a try to the other projects but the one i got to use i was able to follow some steps mentioned here (it was all pure luck because there was no documentation at all): https://github.com/ggiraudon/m3u2strm/issues/1

Hi Guys,

 

I just came across this and thought I had won the lottery when I found the attached. However I can't get it to work for me on either mac or windows. I haven't a clue about coding or python so I thought this was  the answer to my problems. I load the m3u as per the photo but nothing happens. What I am doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.
