Super1 16 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Sometimes i use mpv player because a lot of videos are very dark and mpv has a feature to up brightness. If you could add this feature to emby player or atleast make it possible to open external player mpv
Luke 42077 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Hi, why do you think the external player isn't working?

When i click play and choose mpv it turns my screen landscape and next second back to portrait. It stays in emby app. Like it tried to open and then goes out Edited September 3, 2023 by Super1
Super1 16 Posted September 3, 2023 Author Posted September 3, 2023 If i try to open video directly from mpv app via "open url" option it does the same thing
Super1 16 Posted September 3, 2023 Author Posted September 3, 2023 3 minutes ago, Luke said: What URL? When stream is opened an url is generated : something like this: https://embydownloads.duckdns.org:8096/emby/videos/54236/stream.mkv?DeviceId=xxx&MediaSourceId=cxxxc7&Static=true&PlaySessionId=767c17c074a1440d8172xxx&api_key=xxx
Luke 42077 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Ok, that should work in mpv. Maybe you can get error info from mpv? Maybe the server log will tell us something.

Dont know how to share from mpv. embyserver(1).txt Edited September 3, 2023 by Super1
Luke 42077 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 From the server’s perspective things look normal, so you’d have to find out why mpv doesn’t like it.
Luke 42077 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 Why not just play in Emby and increase the brightness?
Super1 16 Posted September 3, 2023 Author Posted September 3, 2023 4 minutes ago, Luke said: Why not just play in Emby and increase the brightness? Brightness is full. Video is dark. I think mpv increases contrast or something. True black pixels become lit after increase. I guess i can use an app that like twilight for that. Ok thank you for the help

Do you know if app needs special "all files access" permission to be able to stream from emby? New android update now has video access ,music access and all files access permissions seperatly. It works on vlc that has the option but mpv doesnt

Luke 42077 Posted September 3, 2023 Posted September 3, 2023 The phone shouldn’t need any of that to stream from the server. 1
Super1 16 Posted September 4, 2023 Author Posted September 4, 2023 It seems to work perfectly when i am on the local area network of my emby server. With this info could you help me figure out why wouldnt it work on WAN 13 hours ago, Luke said: Ok, that should work in mpv. Maybe you can get error info from mpv?

Luke 42077 Posted September 7, 2023 Posted September 7, 2023 is your server setup with https? maybe mpv is rejecting the ssl certificate? 1
