[Plugin] EmbyWeeklyDigest — automatic weekly "what's new" popup


Recommended Posts

EmbyWeeklyDigest sends a popup to everyone's session listing every movie and brand-new TV series added to your library in the last 7 days — fully automated, no scripts or cron jobs needed.

Features

  • Runs as a native Emby Scheduled Task (Dashboard → Scheduled Tasks → EmbyWeeklyDigest) — default is Friday 6:00 PM, change the day/time or run it on demand right from Emby's own scheduling UI
  • Lists new movies and brand-new TV series (a new episode of a show you already have doesn't count — only first-time series)
  • Shows release year + community rating next to each title, e.g. Movie Title (2026) - 7.4/10
  • TV shows sorted newest-first by release year; shows older than 5 years are skipped by default so the digest stays focused on what's actually new to you
  • Deferred delivery — if you're offline when it sends, you get it automatically next time you log in
  • Config page with header text, movie/TV toggles, skip-when-empty, auto-dismiss timeout, a "Send Test Digest" button, and digest history with per-user delivery tracking

Install

  1. Download EmbyWeeklyDigest.Plugin.dll from the latest release: https://github.com/sftech13/embyweeklydigest/releases/latest
  2. Copy it to your Emby plugins folder and restart Emby
  3. Configure it under Dashboard → Plugins → EmbyWeeklyDigest
