 Yes I got it sorted. It's not quite what I wanted though.

The idea is a good one but Ideally I would like it to sit on my vps and generate the same Plugin strm links as used in the addon. Using embycon to get meta for the strms and then passing to the gdrive addon for selection of quality etc. This is how I was using makkonens python strm maker.

A few issues I found with the current html5 way.
I was getting multiple links supplied when browsing my local library due to it generating multiple quality srtm files. And making it look messy.
Also I noticed whatever quality srtm I clicked they were all of very low quality. All very pixelated, like watching 360p on a large screen TV.
The streams seemed to start slower also, Not sure if I was streaming via the vps or the link passes direct to googledrive?  
 Multiple files for each media file is for Emby so it can do quality selection.  You can change the parameter go create Google transcode to false during creation so only 1 file is created.

For the quality issue, you need to have at least made one save in settings pane even if you don't make any changes.  The default in settings is to set playback to highest quality,but if you don't set it or let it set the default, it will playback lowest quality.

Yes I can do this and it works well for me, unfortunately my sibbling has a much lower bandwidth than me and needs the choice of lower resolution/quality.

I managed to get the streams playing correctly now. I am finding...
TV shows don't get an appended .quality like movies do. Is this an error my end?
When auto marking of the TV stream watched only one does so I have to mark the others watched manually. Is this on the todo list or is it my error again? Smile

Thanks
