embyExternalUrl

Emby External Player Server Script

This uses the nginx njs module to run a JavaScript script. It adds an external player link in the external link section of Emby videos.

  • Works with all official Emby clients.
  • Does not support older TV clients that lack an external media database link section.
  • Be mindful of compatibility with the built-in web view implementation on TV clients.

Deployment Methods (choose one)

1. Standalone Usage

This example uses Docker, but you can also install the njs module manually.

Download the script:

wget https://github.com/bpking1/embyExternalUrl/releases/download/v0.0.1/addExternalUrl.tar.gz \
  && mkdir -p ~/embyExternalUrl \
  && tar -xzvf ./addExternalUrl.tar.gz -C ~/embyExternalUrl \
  && cd ~/embyExternalUrl
  • Edit externalUrl.js to adjust serverAddr as needed.
  • tags and groups are extracted from video versions as keywords for external link names. If not needed, leave them unchanged.
  • emby.conf defaults to reverse proxying Emby server on port 8096 — adjust if necessary.
  • docker-compose.yml maps port 8097 by default — adjust if necessary.

Start Docker:

docker-compose up -d

Now visit port 8097. At the bottom of the video info page, you’ll see the external player link added.

Check logs:

docker logs -f nginx-embyUrl 2>&1 | grep error

2. Integration with emby2Alist

  1. Place externalUrl.js into the conf.d directory of emby2Alist, at the same level as emby.js.
  2. Copy the contents between ## addExternalUrl SETTINGS ## from emby.conf into the emby2Alist emby.conf, above the location / block.
  3. Copy the js_import line from the top of emby.conf into the same position in emby2Alist’s emby.conf.
  4. Restart nginx or reload the config with:
    nginx -s reload
    
    Then access via the nginx port configured for emby2Alist.
