Emby & Jellyfin Support
planned
Andrew Hawks (Hawker)
Any updates on this? As of Oct-18-2024 the only request that has more upvotes is Web UI. Also, Plex continues to make anti-community moves, and it appears like most people beginning to host their own media are starting with Emby at this point. There's a very strong case for putting this at or near the top of the very roadmap for the continued evolution of Kometa.

Andrew Hawks (Hawker) I'm pretty sure that's not the right place to start this discussion, but I think Jellyfin is preferred over Emby since it's 100% free and backed by a bigger community (both 3rd-party software and open source contributor vice).

Benjamin Ok, you can s/Emby/Jellyfin/ in my original comment - the feature request is "Emby & Jellyfin support". The point is to get Kometa's awesome collection building, overlays, etc. into the servers that the self-hosted media community is migrating to, and not just have it be a Plex tool.

Andrew Hawks (Hawker) It's not a trivial change, and everyone involved is a volunteer.

Andrew Hawks (Hawker) Hoping to see some movement on this soon too! I think both have similar APIs there wouldn't be a reason to add one and not the other at the time of implementation anyway! I run both myself and have users on both, just no more Plex and this is the last thing I miss having!

After a frustrating back and forth with Plex about refusing to clear my account of any history and personal data, I decided to delete my account entirely and never use Plex again. To really burn the bridge, they refused to let me use my license again if I ever returned too. Zero customer retention or sympathy towards well being/privacy concerns.
Really hoping PMM detaches itself from purely being a Plex service at this point not only for personal reasons but also because it's such an awesome tool that many platforms can benefit from!
Keep up the good work and I hope to see you guys again soon!

I would love to see PMM for Jellyfin. PMM is the only thing keeping me tied to Plex

In light of the recent privacy concerns with Plex and the Discover Together features, I'm really hoping PMM adds support for Emby & Jellyfin in the near future. I want out of the Plex ecosystem and PMM is my favorite thing to come from it.

CJ: Its about time :) I would greatly appreciate the feature

I also would greatly appreciate this feature for my personal home lab !
I can't wait to use PMM with my Jellyfin

Emby is absolutely needed here. Plex is shooting itself in the foot and losing a ton of people lately. It's time to move forward instead of backwards

Emby support would surely be a nice addition - and it would expand PMM's userbase and visibility.

This would be fantastic to have the custom libraries in Emby. Jellyfin still has a ways to go. Emby is a more mature platform.

Please note that the new Emby SDK is available for you guys to use, it included a Python API which should make your integration much easier. More info is here.....

This would be a very welcomed feature. I don't totally agree with the direction Plex has been going so support for Jellyfin would make a big difference.
