I'm an emby person myself and am enjoying LibreELEC a bunch. With the emby for Kodi addon I've gotten so used to having every single thing in one interface that when a situation presents itself where I'm using the actual emby app, I get disappointed with the fact that none of the other Kodi addons are there.
It's pretty slick and once everyone is used to the Kodi interface for all apps/addons we've never looked back
Yeah, Kodi seems to be the leading contender.
How old is that add-on and howe well does it work? I was exploring Kodi at one point in the past (never got past planning stage) and was looking to see if there was a plugin to integrate Emby but couldn't find one (there's nothing really special about it's streams, they just need to be requested the right way).
I may give that a try. I do like the idea of a unified interface versus a controller for the UI and a separate controller/webapp for Emby.
There's an older and a new version of the addon. And it works well enough! Even has a helper to clean up the interface around the emby stuff.
The secondary emby app can still control the kodi box the same way also!
Yeah, I think I just tried the older one "EmbyCon" and it just loads an empty repo.
"Emby for Kodo NextGen" seems to be the "new" one and is currently syncing my library on my test box.
