A collection of nginx njs scripts and userscripts that add external player links to Emby, Jellyfin, and Plex media servers, and redirect playback to Alist direct links. It works as a reverse-proxy layer or browser userscript across all official clients.

Use cases

  • redirect emby playback to alist direct links
  • add external player button to emby and jellyfin clients
  • play plex media through external players
  • proxy emby server with nginx to inject external links
  • use potplayer or vlc to open emby videos

When to choose

  • you self-host Emby/Jellyfin/Plex with media stored behind Alist and want direct-link playback
  • you want to open videos in a preferred external player on any official client
  • you need a lightweight nginx-based reverse proxy tweak without modifying the media server

When to avoid

  • you don't use Alist or external players
  • you rely on very old TV clients lacking the external media database link section
  • you want a fully managed GUI solution rather than editing nginx configs
