Trickplay

[alleycat]

Now that Android TV is moving into the direction of supporting Trickplay, I would like to enable that again. However I don't want to generate it for all my existing media. I remember with Jellyscrub (when using the web-ui) if the media did not have a Trickplay extracted, it would extract it while playing, is this still the case or do I have to generate it for all the media?

For the current release of Jellyfin, you will need to generate them for all media files.

However, there is a new option to generate them only by using keyframes.
What this means is that your trickplays will generate at a really fast rate (much faster than before when using GPU).
The draw back to this is that the timestamps for them can be inaccurate.

You can also now save them along your media files again like before.

If Trickplay is turned on in the Dashboard and my samba share media is read only, does it still work?
