When will it finally be possible to play iso-files in Emby??

Hopefully, never. There are plenty of things the Emby plays quite well and it is hideously easy to convert ISO files to a number of them.

Ok, I understand. I'll give up.

Why don't you run MakeMKV on the ISOs to remux them to MKV?
This wouldn't change the codecs just the package.
Emby would be able to play them this way and if you ever needed the ISO again it can be remuxed back to ISO.

Yes your´re right. I´m going to rip my 743 DVDs into mp4 files with DVDFab. I don't have any other way.

use MKV - it's a much more portable and flexible format.

If you have already have the ISO's - then converting them to MKV via a script is just as easy (find them online) - as space is likely an issue, then I'd suggest doing in batches and do spot tests to ensure they are good before you remove the old ISO's and move onto the next batch.    If you are ripping them from the original disk, then you have lost nothing anyway - you just chose the correct container that will be fully supported for the forseeable future.
