Classify media on the fly (during playback)?

[Adri]

Hi, I've been using Jellyfin for a few months now and I really like how lightweight it is compared to Plex. I'd love to make it my primary/only media server, but there is one feature that seems to be missing. I'd like to be able to somehow classify media on-the-fly during playback - i.e. while I am watching something, I'd like to be able to add it to a playlist or collection, or even be able to edit metadata or delete the media altogether. Right now, it appears the only similar thing I can do from the playback screen is to add the media to my favorites. Is there something I am missing, or possibly a plugin that would support this functionality?

You didn't miss anything. That functionality is not available during playback I'm not sure this is something a plugin could add. You could open another browser tab to make those changes.

You could open another browser tab to make those changes.

That would be the closest way to currently achieve editing metadata and adding to collections/playlists while a video is being streamed.

You can also make a new feature request to ask for it: http://features.jellyfin.org/
