Emby Streams - Unraid Dashboard Widget Plugin


Recommended Posts

This is a simple Unraid plugin that adds a widget to the Unraid dashboard. 

The widget will show:

  • All active streams
  • The user streaming
  • The device it is streaming on
  • And the current state with icons indicating normal playback or transcoding.

I don't have plans to really expand the feature set, except to maybe change the current state to the current streams timestamp or progress.   Otherwise the current state really meets my needs but I'm open to feedback and suggestions.

If I get enough feedback, I'll work on packaging it correctly and submitting to the Unraid Community Apps store.   As of now, you manually install the plugin by going to Plugins > Install Plugin > and pasting the url for the plg file.   You can click on the cog on the widget or in the installed plugins list, click the emby icon to go to the settings page.   You'll need to enter the server ip, port, api key and choose a refresh rate.  It currently defaults to 5 seconds.

@gthriftNice 👍

Just trying this out, on my test server.

Would love to have playing colors change when transcoding.

That way I don't need to mouse over to see if it is 😉
