Android Auto - Play videos (even if it's only the sound)

[LeidenSpain 33]

Hello,
I think it would be a good idea to add the possibility to also play videos in the emby application for android auto (although the problem is still in the Google rules).

At least it would be interesting to be able to listen to the audio, for example if we play a concert.
Then there are cars that allow you to play video when the car is stationary, and it would be great to be able to do that from emby.

Hi, yes I think being able to play in audio only mode is a good idea. thanks for the feedback.

And would there be the possibility of playing video too?
I do not know if the google rules indicate something in this regard, because there is no app that allows playing video

Right, google does not allow that at this time.

ok, well if it is a rule of "god", nothing can be done

Any update on the audio only capability? I enjoy listening to documentaries while I work, and having it native on android auto while I drove would be very convenient for playtime tracking
