Add Emby Support
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Overseerr only supports Plex
Describe the solution you'd like Would love to see Emby supported
Following up for Emby support. I know it is low prioity, but Im moving away from Plex. Emby support would be nice.
+1 to this. Plex is unsafe in a way that you authenticate to your own server via Plex Inc's servers. Considering the nature of what it does, this is very unsafe in case if they ever get hacked or raided by authorities. Many users switched to Emby for that reason.

don't know why this was marked as off topic because it's a valid reason. I wrote the initial code for Jellyfin support but I haven't been updating it, and I'm going to rewrite it for the beta build of Overseerr.

We mark +1 comments as off-topic when they do not add anything constructive, to avoid cluttering the issue comments. The proper way to upvote an issue is to react to it with a "thumbs up."
I would hold off on re-implementing Jellyfin support for now. As mentioned previously, there are other changes that need to come first. Feel free to reach out on Discord if you want to chat about it.
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

With the Plex venture capital funding working towards and moving to first party streaming services, I would think implementing a Emby support is even more important. Please add Emby support. Thank you.
Possibility to create a fork and replace globality of plex api to emby api ?
I hope "someday" will be sooner than later. How about we all show our support and sponsor them? :)
Is there a reason this isn't getting done?
I am curious myself. I’d love to see this made compatible with Emby!
Had a quick chat with @danshilm on Discord. Here's the deal:
Comments that aren't constructive are being hidden to avoid clutter, especially +1's. If you want to show your support, add a thumbs up to the top comment. Seems like there is some collateral damage here in hiding comments, including the one saying don't comment +1's, but you can always head to Discord to chat with the team.
Implementing support for other media servers requires completely decoupling overseerr's dependency on plex. Right now, plex is required to even get overseerr up and running, since overseerr uses the plex admin account as its own admin account (among other things). Removing this dependency is a significant undertaking that would require a lot of communication with the core devs. That level of communication hasn't been present in past attempts to add emby/jellyfin.
There you have it. If you want to help work on this, go chat with the team on Discord!
There is a fork that supports Jellyfin here

you hide comments to discourage discussion, then want to close issues for being stale?
Does that mean there is no plans to bring it in to Overseer itself?
PS: what's with the comment has been minimised for valid comment?
+1, i would like to see emby suport in overseer too, plex is getting worser every day, almost unusable..

Just a small update. We are currently in the process of unlinking Plex as a requirement to setup/use Overseerr. This will open the floodgates for other media server integrations. See #3015

Is it possible to merge Jellyseerr into Overseerr since Jellyseerr has the missing Emby and Jellyfin support? Then there won't be a need for a fork.
