Like Emby, but why can't I find the perfect solution.....

Let me explain.  I have a combination of items:  ripped TV shows/movies, purchased TV shows via Apple/Fandango (important), and ripped TV show/movie extras.  None of the following media servers can handle all of my wants as explained below:

Emby:  Positives-Handles ripped shows/movies/extras great;  Negatives-does not utilize adding "streamlink" files where you can click on a title that you own in Apple/Fandango systems and play through Apple/Fandango apps along with the ripped extras that I have ripped from the dvd's of these items.

Plex:  Positives-Same as Emby; Negatives-very similar to Emby, one awkward solution is clicking on "ways to watch" and you click on Apple then your item will open in Apple's app to play.  This is great but you can't add the ripped extras in this scenario

Infuse:  Positives:  Play streamlink files and ripped titles perfectly  Negatives:  Ripped extras are not able to associate with the movie or tv shows

Channels:  Positives:  Same as Infuse  Negatives:  TV Show extras are not supported.

 

Final Thought:  Emby... Please incorporate abiity for users to input streamlink files to your library and associate ripped movie/tv show extras to these titles.  I am not asking for Apple/Fandango owned titles to play through Emby app, but that you can click on the streamlink file which opens app in Apple/Fandango to watch title.
