Edit: nevermind. Posted this before reading the latest post from dmd. I'll continue to use the other strm creation tool for now. Thanks!

  

Which other strm creation tool are you using? Thanks

I kludged together a little python script a few months ago that makes strm files. It's here: https://github.com/makkonen/get-google-drive-streams

However, because it's worked for me, I haven't done anything to update it or make it any more robust. (for instance, I realized after I made it that it might continue to make entries for files which have subsequently been deleted).

You could also try the webui version of the emby plugin, but I haven't tried that:

Yes I'm on Windows but have spare pc to install Linux or a a few vps servers floating around so can have a play this weekend.

 Install (git clone) this on a Linux VPS (it is light-powered, can run even on a VPS with just 128mb RAM):

https://github.com/ddurdle/Python-Google...ideoStream

It's the KODI Gdrive plugin in webui form, but the scheduler has been in there for awhile.  Enroll an account and then use the scheduler function to generate the STRMs.

Don't modify enable parameter hiding (in settings) unless you have PyCrypto installed.

Also, I'm just noticing this, since I haven't been following along that closely lately:

I'm still struggling to get some kind of scheduled strms working with this addon.
The best option I have come up with is to use @makkonen windows strm maker This one on a windows machine then get emby to work it's magic on the resulting strms.

My issue is @makkonen strm generator for some reason fails to generate a few of my files and I am stumped as to why not. They are named in the same way.
My only clue is when I use the same script on my VPS windows server it misses far more of the files, so this could be a clue as why it's happening.

I was hoping Makkonen was around to give me a clue but looks like he doesn't frequent the forum anymore. Anyone else have Python knowledge that could enlighten me?

My first guess was that my script was failing to pick up some files since it's filtering on mimetype instead of name... But I can't see how that would change based on where it's run. Maybe it comes down to python library variants. I'm far from an expert, so I'm just guessing.

I gather you've moved on to a better solution since then, but if other people are using it and having an issue, I can try to dig into it a bit.
