Feature request
Jellyfin is a self-hosted media server that supports all kinds of media types - including audiobooks. It has as well documented API that can can provide a list of items in a collection, download files, and even get an audio stream.
Narrative
Initial feature: Add a new feature, similar to the existing "Download from URL" feature, called "Download from Jellyfin", that allows you to view a Jellyfin collection and download an audiobook to the device. I love having access to all my Audiobooks, but they take up a ton of device space. Integration with Jellyfin allows me to keep my collection well organized on a server, but still have easy access into this great app. There is some configuration required for this, inputting a Jellyfin URL, selecting a user, and logging in.
Potential feature iteration: Jellyfin support streaming audio. I have no idea if streaming is of any interest to this app. Personally, I'm not interested in streaming, I want things downloaded. However, the potential is there if interested.
Design
Frankly, I'm bad at UX, but I'm happy brainstorm if desired.
