When no custom directory is set, recordings go to an "SRF Recordings" folder
in the chosen library, or the first TV Shows library, so they show up without
adding a library by hand. The settings page gets a library picker, a check
that the directory is writable, and help for sandboxed systemd services.

A recording of a live event crashed partway through: when its short
Akamai token expired, the proxy's stale-alias check swapped the
recording's mapping to the most recently registered deferred stream,
of any content. Segment requests were then built against the wrong CDN
path, returned 403, and ffmpeg exited, splitting the recording into
several files.
Proxy:
- Never swap URN-backed livestreams; they refresh themselves from the
API. Only consider swap candidates with the same URN.
Recording lifecycle:
- Complete a recording once its stream has been gone from the API for
5 minutes (broadcasts can end before ValidTo).
- Fail a recording still waiting for its stream after ValidTo (or 12h
after ValidFrom) instead of retrying forever.
- Wait for a DVR window whose start= is still in the future instead of
starting ffmpeg against a 400/404.
- Keep the original start time across restarts; don't mark a recording
failed on shutdown cancellation.
Growing .ts recordings:
- ffmpeg writes MPEG-TS (-c copy -copyts) to stdout and the plugin
appends it to one file per recording, so restarts continue the same
file and timeline.
- The Recordings folder lists any recording with a file on disk, not
only completed ones.
- In-progress recordings are exposed as infinite streams reading through
a new endpoint that follows the growing file (same pattern as
Jellyfin's DVR), so they can be watched from the start like a
livestream buffer.

Livestreams and ended broadcasts accumulated in every user's resume row
because Jellyfin saves a playback position for channel items regardless
of whether the position means anything. A livestream has nothing to
return to, so the entry stayed pinned forever.
Two parts:
- PlaybackResumeGuard, an IHostedService on ISessionManager.PlaybackStopped.
Jellyfin saves the resume point before raising the event, so the guard
zeroes it afterwards for livestreams. Stops new entries at the source.
- ResumeCleanupService plus a daily 4 AM task (after the 3 AM expiration
check) for the existing backlog. Clears livestreams, resume points older
than N days, positions under N seconds and playback past N% of runtime,
each threshold configurable.
Only plugin-owned items are touched, matched by the SRF provider ID with a
fallback to the owning channel ID so recordings are covered too. Clearing
sets PlaybackPositionTicks to 0 and leaves Played false: nothing is deleted
and the item stays unwatched.
Config page gains the thresholds plus "Clean Up Stale Entries Now" and
"Clear All SRF Play Entries" buttons, backed by MaintenanceController
under RequiresElevation.
Also folds the duplicated urn.Contains("livestream") check in
MediaSourceFactory and RecordingService into UrnHelper.IsLivestreamUrn.

Remove 9 dead methods, 6 unused constants, and redundant
ReaderWriterLockSlim from MetadataCache. Consolidate repeated
patterns into HasChapters, IsPlayable, and ToLowerString helpers.
Extract shared API methods in SRFApiClient. Move variant manifest
rewriting from controller to StreamProxyService. Make Auto quality
distinct from HD. Update README architecture section.
