The main thing I don't know how to get working is updating metadata on the Emby server from the add-on i.e. if the user has watched a movie from the Emby server in Kodi how to tell Emby that the item has been watched etc.

@sualfred

• Can you or @angelblue05 shed some light on reporting to the server.
  
• IIRC, Emby for Kodi was doing that until version 3 or 4. Why did the method used changed?
  
• Is it still possible to do it this way? If not, how should playback be handled?

I found the following thread in the Emby developer sub-forum https://emby.media/community/index.php?/...-position/ which is exactly what I used in the initial C++ implementation of the Emby media importer. I also found a "POST /Items/{ItemId}" endpoint which seems to allow changing any property of an item. But I didn't manage to get it to work properly yet.

Maybe I'll try my luck with

• POST /Users/{UserId}/PlayedItems/{Id} for marking an item as watched
  
• DELETE /Users/{UserId}/PlayedItems/{Id} for marking an item as unwatched
  
• DELETE ​/Users​/{UserId}​/PlayingItems​/{Id} for setting the resume point of an item
