    If Emby happens to have the same API surface as Jellyfin, you could use that. I doubt that works, I have not tried it.

        I poked at Jelly a bit ago, but as I recall the auto organize was abandoned (kinda a big deal to me) and something about conversions being a problem. Basically I just didn’t see anything that would make me inclined to go through the hassle of reworking what already works.

          I went with Plex for probably ten years after breaking with Emby. I ended things with them because they don’t care about their customers at all. Bugs that break the experience completely that lie untouched/unnoticed/ignored for years, and no replies from the developers. Or even developers that just stop replying to these bugs.

          Switched to Jellyfin this year and it works like a charm. Only thing is it isn’t as good at noticing duplicates in my library, but other than that, works just fine. Definitely above acceptable.

            I do a lot of remote sharing with friends and unfortunately it’s not great for that.

            Also the last time I checked it out the clients kinda sucked. Not even one for Apple TV

                Maybe there was one added since I last checked, or I’m just dumb. Good chance of the latter.

                Edit: oh, 3rd-party clients? I had tried one but they wanted a fucking subscription fee
