Your Emby library, now with intelligent picks
Emby organises your media beautifully. KinoChain adds a layer of taste-based recommendations that get better with every film you log — pulling from the films you already own.
How the Emby connection works
1
Connect via URL + API key
Provide your Emby server URL and an API key. The connection is read-only — KinoChain indexes your library titles without accessing your media.
2
Library indexing
Your Emby movie library is indexed and matched against our film database for accurate cross-referencing.
3
Smarter every log
The more films you log on KinoChain, the better the recommendations become — pulled from the library you actually have.
Emby + KinoChain FAQ
- Do I need Emby Premiere?
- No. The KinoChain integration works with any Emby server regardless of Premiere status. You just need API access, which is standard.
- Is my server information stored?
- Your server URL and API key are stored encrypted. You can remove the connection at any time from Settings → Apps, which will delete all synced data.
- What about my Emby playlists and collections?
- Currently KinoChain syncs your movie library titles and watch status. Collections and playlists may be supported in a future update.
