As pointed out in this reddit thread, emby on windows (and maybe on macos idk) can minimize to the system tray. This takes it to an inobtrusive place for the desktop window manager on that OS, and lets a user who can't or won't run it as a service run it. It also opens up the possibility of running jellyfin as a Sandboxed UWP app at some point in the future.

I think this issue should wait until dotnet core 3.0 is released, since it is set to include full WPF/WinForms GUI components that would make this trivial

@anthonylavado given that this was explicitly removed and (most likely) proper implementation requires core 3.0, I think it warrants feature label instead of enhancement.

LogicalPhallacy commented 5 years ago

@JustAMan please tag with netcore 3

JustAMan commented 4 years ago

This should be doable now as we use netcore 3.1. Also I'm not sure I agree with issue being moved here, it was expected to be a feature of server, not a tray app.

Closing as this issue doesn't seem to be relevant anymore.
