Emby External Player User Script (Supports Web and Server)

Latest user script update address:
http://greasyfork.icu/zh-CN/scripts/514529

Notes from the Original Author (bpking1)

  1. Add MPV Player: On desktop, you need to configure it with this project: mpv-handler.
  2. PotPlayer: Please use the official latest version. Current version 230208 has an issue where Chinese titles appear garbled — wait for the official update.
  3. PotPlayer can load external subtitles. If no external subtitle is selected, it will try to load Chinese subtitles by default.
  4. The direct-link cloud drive playback button has been removed. If you need direct links, solve it on the Emby server side. See this article.
  5. If PotPlayer launch doesn’t work, it’s usually because the registry entry is missing. Reinstall the latest official PotPlayer.
  6. To allow multiple PotPlayer instances, remove /current around line 186 of the script.
  7. Recommended: deploy the JS script directly on the Emby server (no Tampermonkey needed). For Linux:
    • Create externalPlayer.js under /opt/emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/
    • Copy the script content into it
    • In index.html, add a <script> reference just above the closing </body> tag.
  8. Reference info from original script: GreasyFork link.

Deployment Methods (Choose One)

1. Native Server Deployment (Recommended)

  • Pros: No dependency on plugins like Tampermonkey. All web clients share the plugin automatically.
  • Cons: Users cannot disable it manually, and it won’t work on non-web clients.

Steps:

  1. Edit ../emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/index.html.
  2. At the bottom, just above </body>, below the line <script src="apploader.js" defer></script>, add:
    html <script src="https://emby-external-url.7o7o.cc/embyWebAddExternalUrl/embyLaunchPotplayer.js" defer></script> </body>
  3. Refresh the client browser or clear cache to take effect.

2. Server Plugin User Script Manager Deployment (Recommended)

  • Pros: Unified across multiple clients, supports forced enable/disable, more flexible and modern.
  • Cons: Depends on a third-party user script manager plugin.

Use CustomCssJS.

  • Server changes once, clients can integrate manually.
  • Alternatively, use a third-party modified Emby build with CustomCssJS already integrated.
  • Limitation: no modified version available for iOS.

3. Browser User Script Manager Deployment

  • Pros: Traditional and familiar.
  • Cons: Each browser requires its own user script manager installation.

4. Other Deployment & Client Integration

Configurable Variables

const iconConfig = {
    // Icon source, choose one (priority: #3 highest)
    // 1. Load icons from jsDelivr CDN
    baseUrl: "https://emby-external-url.7o7o.cc/embyWebAddExternalUrl/icons",
    // baseUrl: "https://fastly.jsdelivr.net/gh/bpking1/embyExternalUrl@main/embyWebAddExternalUrl/icons",
    // 2. Use server local icons (same as /emby-server/system/dashboard-ui/icons)
    // baseUrl: "icons",
    // 3. Embed icons as Base64 inside the script (larger script size)
    // Copy ./iconsExt.js content into getIconsExt function
    removeCustomBtns: false,
};

// Option to rewrite stream links with real filenames for better third-party player compatibility.
// Default: false. Requires nginx-emby2Alist rewrite. If playback fails, disable this option.
const useRealFileName = false;
