    I've been trying to find some type of way to manage access to certain libraries for my kids. I have their libraries split into "Educational Shows" "Shows" "Premium Shows". "Educational" they can watch whenever we give them TV time, "shows" they can watch on the weekends, and premium they can watch when they build up time by completing chores and helping around the house.

    What I would love is a way to input time for users, like, User A has two hours worth of time banked for premium library. User A and User B can watch "Shows" library on Saturdays and Sunday only, etc etc. Does anything like that exist? I have been unable to find a way to do it with existing Jellyfin controls.

    Thank you
