a Jellyfin TV Client, optimized for Zidoo media players aka "Zidoo Edition"
Update: Development of this fork has stopped!
### I moved to CoreElec + Amlogic + Jellyfin for Kodi plugin
- main issue is time to merge all the upstream changes and motivation to work on the fork while not using Zidoo devices anymore
- there are issues/bug's that also will probably never fixed by Zidoo via there API
- seeking for transcodes (multisegmented http stream issue)
- proper enabled subtitles on play (always need to seek-back at least once until ASS show-up)
- so far everything still works with JF 10.9.11
- need to edit/add path data to \jellyfin\root\default\options.xml for new direct-path libs, since the Ui option was removed, yet direct-path still works

- "smart" audio/subtitle selection logic
- working tarnscoding for unsupported formats/codec's

- cutoff grids, ui scaling fixed
### How to use with "Direct Path" option (smb/nfs):
- setup your Jellyfin server [library's](https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/server/libraries.html) with network paths or path substitution via `Shared network folder:` option
- Formats
- `smb://smb_user:smb_password@server_ip/share/folder`
- `smb://smb_user@server_ip/share/folder`
- `nfs://server_ip/nfs_export/:`
- `nfs://server_ip/nfs_export/:/tv`
- nfs needs the `/:` special marker right after the actual nfs export name/path portion!
- Examples:
- `smb://andy:123456@192.168.1.101/htpc-share/series`
- `smb://andy@192.168.1.101/htpc-share/series`
- `nfs://192.168.1.101/mnt/media/movies/:` -> with nfs export `/mnt/media/movies`
- `nfs://192.168.1.101/mnt/media/:/movies` -> with nfs export `/mnt/media`
- enable the `Direct Path` option in the JellyfinTv client
### NOTE: starting with firmware 6.(4/7).30+ you dont need the special `/:` NFS root-marker anymore!
