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
