+# Debugging Guide for SRF Play Plugin
+
+This guide helps you debug issues with the SRF Play plugin, including proxy configuration and content fetching problems.
+
+## Enhanced Logging
+
+The plugin now includes detailed logging to help diagnose issues. After installing the updated version, check your Jellyfin logs for these key messages.
+
+## Key Log Messages to Look For
+
+### 1. Proxy Configuration Status
+
+When the plugin initializes, you'll see:
+
+**Without proxy:**
+```
+[INF] SRFApiClient initializing without proxy
+```
+
+**With proxy:**
+```
+[INF] SRFApiClient initializing with proxy enabled: http://your-proxy:port
+[INF] Proxy configured: http://your-proxy:port (Authentication: True/False)
+```
+
+**Proxy configuration errors:**
+```
+[ERR] Failed to configure proxy: http://your-proxy:port
+```
+
+### 2. Media Composition Fetching
+
+For each video URN, you'll see detailed logs:
+
+```
+[INF] Fetching media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:12345 from https://il.srgssr.ch/integrationlayer/2.0/mediaComposition/byUrn/urn:srf:video:12345.json
+[INF] Media composition response for URN urn:srf:video:12345: StatusCode=OK
+[INF] Successfully fetched media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:12345 - Chapters: 1
+```
+
+**If there are no chapters:**
+```
+[WRN] Media composition for URN urn:srf:video:12345 has no chapters
+```
+
+**HTTP errors:**
+```
+[ERR] HTTP error fetching media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:12345 - StatusCode: 404
+```
+
+### 3. Stream URL Resolution
+
+For each chapter, you'll see detailed resource processing:
+
+```
+[INF] Processing chapter abc123 with 5 resources
+[INF] Chapter abc123: Total resources=5, Non-DRM resources=2
+[INF] Chapter abc123: HLS resources found=1
+```
+
+**DRM-protected content:**
+```
+[WRN] All resources for chapter abc123 require DRM
+[DBG] DRM resource: Protocol=HLS, Streaming=HLS, DRM=WIDEVINE
+```
+
+**No HLS streams:**
+```
+[WRN] No HLS resources found for chapter: abc123
+[DBG] Non-HLS resource: Protocol=HTTP, Streaming=PROGRESSIVE, URL=https://...
+[INF] Using fallback resource for chapter abc123: https://...
+```
+
+## Common Issues and Solutions
+
+### Issue 1: Videos Not Loading (Conversion Failures)
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+Conversion complete: 0 successful, 18 failed, 0 expired, 0 no stream
+```
+
+**Debugging steps:**
+
+1. **Check for DRM content:**
+   - Look for: `All resources for chapter XXX require DRM`
+   - Solution: This content cannot be played (Widevine DRM protection)
+
+2. **Check for HTTP errors:**
+   - Look for: `HTTP error fetching media composition` with status codes
+   - Common codes:
+     - `403 Forbidden`: Geo-restriction or blocked
+     - `404 Not Found`: Content removed or URN invalid
+     - `429 Too Many Requests`: Rate limiting
+   - Solution: Check if proxy is needed for geo-restrictions
+
+3. **Check for missing chapters:**
+   - Look for: `Media composition for URN XXX has no chapters`
+   - Solution: This video metadata is incomplete or invalid
+
+### Issue 2: Proxy Not Being Used
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Plugin says "initializing without proxy" even though configured
+- Getting geo-restriction errors (403)
+
+**Debugging steps:**
+
+1. Check the initialization log:
+   ```
+   [INF] SRFApiClient initializing with proxy enabled: http://...
+   ```
+
+2. If it says "without proxy", check:
+   - Is "Use Proxy" checkbox enabled in plugin settings?
+   - Is the Proxy Address field filled in?
+   - Did you restart Jellyfin after saving?
+
+3. Check for proxy errors:
+   ```
+   [ERR] Failed to configure proxy: http://...
+   ```
+   - Verify the proxy URL format (must include `http://` or `socks5://`)
+   - Test proxy connectivity: `curl --proxy http://proxy:port https://il.srgssr.ch`
+
+### Issue 3: Proxy Connection Failures
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+[ERR] HTTP error fetching media composition for URN: ... - StatusCode: null
+```
+or timeout errors
+
+**Debugging steps:**
+
+1. **Verify proxy is reachable from Jellyfin server:**
+   ```bash
+   curl --proxy http://your-proxy:port https://il.srgssr.ch
+   ```
+
+2. **Check proxy authentication:**
+   - If proxy requires auth, ensure username/password are configured
+   - Look for: `Proxy configured: ... (Authentication: True)`
+
+3. **Check proxy supports HTTPS:**
+   - The SRF API uses HTTPS, ensure your proxy can handle it
+
+4. **Test with a simple HTTP proxy:**
+   ```bash
+   # Test with SSH tunnel as SOCKS5 proxy
+   ssh -D 1080 -N user@gateway-server
+   # Then configure: socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
+   ```
+
+### Issue 4: Content Expiration
+
+**Symptoms:**
+```
+Conversion complete: 0 successful, 0 failed, 10 expired, 0 no stream
+```
+
+**Solution:**
+- Content has expired and is no longer available
+- Check the expiration task runs regularly
+- Some content is time-limited by SRF
+
+## Enabling Debug Logs
+
+To see even more detailed logs (like `[DBG]` messages), modify your Jellyfin logging configuration:
+
+1. Go to **Dashboard → Logs**
+2. Click **Settings**
+3. Set log level to **Debug** for troubleshooting
+4. Restart Jellyfin
+
+**Warning:** Debug logging can be very verbose and consume disk space quickly. Only enable temporarily.
+
+## Testing Proxy Configuration
+
+To verify your proxy is working:
+
+### 1. Enable Proxy in Plugin Settings
+- Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play
+- Check "Use Proxy"
+- Enter your proxy address
+- Save and restart Jellyfin
+
+### 2. Check Initialization Logs
+Look for:
+```
+[INF] SRFApiClient initializing with proxy enabled: http://your-proxy:port
+[INF] Proxy configured: http://your-proxy:port (Authentication: False)
+```
+
+### 3. Trigger Content Refresh
+- Dashboard → Scheduled Tasks → "Refresh SRF Play Content"
+- Run task manually
+- Watch logs for media composition requests
+
+### 4. Verify Requests Go Through Proxy
+You can monitor proxy logs (if available) or use network monitoring tools to confirm traffic routes through the proxy.
+
+## Getting Help
+
+When reporting issues, include:
+
+1. **Plugin version:**
+   - Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play → Version
+
+2. **Relevant log entries:**
+   - The initialization message (with/without proxy)
+   - Any error messages
+   - The "Conversion complete" summary
+   - Resource processing details for failed items
+
+3. **Configuration:**
+   - Business unit selected
+   - Proxy enabled? (yes/no, don't share credentials)
+   - Where Jellyfin is running (local network, VPS, etc.)
+
+4. **Network environment:**
+   - Are you behind a geo-restriction?
+   - Is the proxy on the same network or remote?
+   - Any firewalls or network policies?
+
+## Example of Good Debug Output
+
+When everything works correctly with proxy:
+
+```
+[INF] SRFApiClient initializing with proxy enabled: http://192.168.1.1:3128
+[INF] Proxy configured: http://192.168.1.1:3128 (Authentication: False)
+[INF] Fetching media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:12345 from https://il.srgssr.ch/...
+[INF] Media composition response for URN urn:srf:video:12345: StatusCode=OK
+[INF] Successfully fetched media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:12345 - Chapters: 1
+[INF] Processing chapter abc123 with 3 resources
+[INF] Chapter abc123: Total resources=3, Non-DRM resources=2
+[INF] Chapter abc123: HLS resources found=1
+[DBG] Selected stream for chapter abc123: Quality=HD, Protocol=HLS, URL=https://...m3u8
+```
+
+## Example of Failed Conversion (DRM Issue)
+
+```
+[INF] Fetching media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:67890 from https://il.srgssr.ch/...
+[INF] Media composition response for URN urn:srf:video:67890: StatusCode=OK
+[INF] Successfully fetched media composition for URN: urn:srf:video:67890 - Chapters: 1
+[INF] Processing chapter def456 with 2 resources
+[INF] Chapter def456: Total resources=2, Non-DRM resources=0
+[WRN] All resources for chapter def456 require DRM
+[DBG] DRM resource: Protocol=HLS, Streaming=HLS, DRM=WIDEVINE
+```
+
+This means the content requires Widevine DRM and cannot be played by Jellyfin.

-# So you want to make a Jellyfin plugin
+# Jellyfin SRF Play Plugin
 
-Awesome! This guide is for you. Jellyfin plugins are written using the dotnet standard framework. What that means is you can write them in any language that implements the CLI or the DLI and can compile to net6.0. The examples on this page are in C# because that is what most of Jellyfin is written in, but F#, Visual Basic, and IronPython should all be compatible once compiled.
+A Jellyfin plugin for accessing SRF Play (Swiss Radio and Television) video-on-demand content and live sports streaming.
 
-## 0. Things you need to get started
+## Status
 
-- [Dotnet SDK 6.0](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download)
+**Beta/Alpha** - This plugin has been tested on two Jellyfin instances and is working. Some clients may experience issues with hardware decoding, which appears to be client-specific behavior.
 
-- An editor of your choice. Some free choices are:
+## Quick Install
 
-   [Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com)
+Add this repository URL in Jellyfin (Dashboard → Plugins → Repositories):
-
-   [Visual Studio Community Edition](https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads)
-
-   [Mono Develop](https://www.monodevelop.com)
-
-## 0.5. Quickstarts
-
-We have a number of quickstart options available to speed you along the way.
-
-- [Download the Example Plugin Project](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-template/tree/master/Jellyfin.Plugin.Template) from this repository, open it in your IDE and go to [step 3](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-template#3-customize-plugin-information)
-
-- Install our dotnet template by [downloading the dotnet-template/content folder from this repo](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-template/tree/master/dotnet-template/content) or off of Nuget (Coming soon)
 
 ```
-   dotnet new -i /path/to/templatefolder
+https://gitea.tourolle.paris/dtourolle/jellyfin-srfPlay/raw/branch/master/manifest.json
 ```
 
-- Run this command then skip to step 4
+Then install "SRF Play" from the plugin catalog.
 
-   ```
+## Features
-      dotnet new Jellyfin-plugin -name MyPlugin

+- **Integration testing** - Tested on multiple Jellyfin instances with VOD and live sports streaming
+
+**Run tests:**
+```bash
+# All tests
+dotnet test
+
+# Unit tests only
+dotnet test --filter "Category!=Integration&Category!=APISpec"
+
+# API spec tests only
+dotnet test --filter "Category=APISpec"
+
+# With coverage
+dotnet test --collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"
 ```
 
-If you'd rather start from scratch keep going on to step one. This assumes no specific editor or IDE and requires only the command line with dotnet in the path.
+See [Test Documentation](Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay.Tests/README.md) for more details.
 
-## 1. Initialize Your Project
+## API Information
 
-Make a new dotnet standard project with the following command, it will make a directory for itself.
+**Base URL:** `https://il.srgssr.ch/integrationlayer/2.0/`
 
-```
+### Key Endpoints
-dotnet new classlib -f net6.0 -n MyJellyfinPlugin
-```
 
-Now add the Jellyfin shared libraries.
+**Integration Layer API v2.0:**
+- `GET /mediaComposition/byUrn/{urn}` - Get video metadata and playable URLs
+- `GET /video/{businessUnit}/latest` - Get latest videos
+- `GET /video/{businessUnit}/trending` - Get trending videos
 
-```
+**Play v3 API:**
-dotnet add package Jellyfin.Model
+- `GET /play/v3/api/{bu}/production/livestreams?eventType=SPORT` - Get scheduled sports livestreams
-dotnet add package Jellyfin.Controller
+- `GET /play/v3/api/{bu}/production/shows/{id}` - Get show details
-```
+- `GET /play/v3/api/{bu}/production/videos-by-show-id?showId={id}` - Get episodes for a show
 
-You have an autogenerated Class1.cs file. You won't be needing this, so go ahead and delete it.
+**Akamai Token Service:**
+- `GET /akahd/token?acl=/{path}/*` - Authenticate stream URLs for playback
 
-## 2. Set Up the Basics
+### URN Format
 
-There are a few mandatory classes you'll need for a plugin so we need to make them.
+- `urn:{bu}:video:{id}` - Video URN (VOD content)
+- `urn:{bu}:scheduled_livestream:video:{id}` - Scheduled sports livestream URN (supported)
+- `urn:{bu}:video:livestream_{channel}` - Live TV channel URN (not supported due to Widevine DRM)
 
-### PluginConfiguration
+Examples:
+- `urn:srf:video:c4927fcf-4ab4-4bcf-be4e-00e4ee9e6d6b` (VOD)
+- `urn:srf:scheduled_livestream:video:7b31c9a6-a96e-4c0e-bfc2-f0d6237f2233` (Sports event)
+- `urn:srf:video:c4927fcf-e1a0-0001-7edd-1ef01d441651` (SRF 1 Live - DRM protected)
 
-You can call it whatever you'd like really. This class is used to hold settings your plugin might need. We can leave it empty for now. This class should inherit from `MediaBrowser.Model.Plugins.BasePluginConfiguration`
+## Building the Plugin
 
-### Plugin
+### Prerequisites
 
-This is the main class for your plugin. It will define your name, version and Id. It should inherit from `MediaBrowser.Common.Plugins.BasePlugin<PluginConfiguration>`
+- .NET 8.0 SDK
+- Jellyfin 10.9.11 or later
 
-Note: If you called your PluginConfiguration class something different, you need to put that between the <>
+### Build Steps
-
-### Implement Required Properties
-
-The Plugin class needs a few properties implemented before it can work correctly.
-
-It needs an override on ID, an override on Name, and a constructor that follows a specific model. To get started you can use the following section.
-
-```c#
-public Plugin(IApplicationPaths applicationPaths, IXmlSerializer xmlSerializer) : base(applicationPaths, xmlSerializer){}
-public override string Name => throw new System.NotImplementedException();
-public override Guid Id => Guid.Parse("");
-```
-
-## 3. Customize Plugin Information
-
-You need to populate some of your plugin's information. Go ahead a put in a string of the Name you've overridden name, and generate a GUID
-
-- **Windows Users**: you can use the Powershell command `New-Guid`, `[guid]::NewGuid()` or the Visual Studio GUID generator
-
-- **Linux and OS X Users**: you can use the Powershell Core command `New-Guid` or this command from your shell of choice:
 
 ```bash
-   od -x /dev/urandom | head -1 | awk '{OFS="-"; srand($6); sub(/./,"4",$5); sub(/./,substr("89ab",rand()*4,1),$6); print $2$3,$4,$5,$6,$7$8$9}'
+cd Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay
+dotnet build
 ```
 
-or
+### Output
 
-   ```bash
+The compiled plugin will be in `bin/Debug/net8.0/`
-   uuidgen
-   ```
 
-- Place that guid inside the `Guid.Parse("")` quotes to define your plugin's ID.
+## Manual Installation
 
-## 4. Adding Functionality
+1. Build the plugin (see above)
+2. Copy the compiled DLL to your Jellyfin plugins directory
+3. Restart Jellyfin
+4. Configure the plugin in Jellyfin Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play
+5. The SRF Play channel will appear in Jellyfin with three main folders:
+   - **Latest Videos** - Recently published content
+   - **Trending Videos** - Popular content
+   - **Live Sports & Events** - Scheduled sports livestreams (skiing, F1, football, etc.)
 
-Congratulations, you now have everything you need for a perfectly functional functionless Jellyfin plugin! You can try it out right now if you'd like by compiling it, then placing the dll you generate in the plugins folder under your Jellyfin config directory. If you want to try and hook it up to a debugger make sure you copy the generated PDB file alongside it.
+## Configuration
 
-Most people aren't satisfied with just having an entry in a menu for their plugin, most people want to have some functionality, so lets look at how to add it.
+- **Business Unit**: Select the Swiss broadcasting unit (default: SRF)
+- **Quality Preference**: Choose video quality — Auto (first available, CDN decides), SD, or HD
+- **Content Refresh Interval**: How often to check for new content (1-168 hours)
+- **Expiration Check Interval**: How often to check for expired content (1-168 hours)
+- **Cache Duration**: How long to cache metadata (5-1440 minutes)
+- **Enable Latest Content**: Automatically discover latest videos
+- **Enable Trending Content**: Automatically discover trending videos
+- **Proxy Settings**: Configure proxy server for routing SRF API traffic (optional)
+  - **Use Proxy**: Enable/disable proxy usage
+  - **Proxy Address**: Proxy server URL (e.g., http://proxy.example.com:8080)
+  - **Proxy Username**: Optional authentication username
+  - **Proxy Password**: Optional authentication password
 
-### 4a. Implement Interfaces
+For detailed proxy setup instructions, see [PROXY_SETUP_GUIDE.md](PROXY_SETUP_GUIDE.md).
 
-If the functionality you are trying to add is functionality related to something that Jellyfin has an interface for you're in luck. Jellyfin uses some automatic discovery and injection to allow any interfaces you implement in your plugin to be available in Jellyfin.
+## Troubleshooting
 
-Here's some interfaces you could implement for common use cases:
+If you encounter issues with the plugin:
+- Check [DEBUG_GUIDE.md](DEBUG_GUIDE.md) for detailed logging information
+- Enable debug logging in Jellyfin to see detailed request/response information
+- Common issues include DRM-protected content and geo-restrictions
 
-- **IAuthenticationProvider** - Allows you to add an authentication provider that can authenticate a user based on a name and a password, but that doesn't expect to deal with local users.
+## Technical Architecture
-- **IBaseItemComparer** - Allows you to add sorting rules for dealing with media that will show up in sort menus
-- **IIntroProvider** - Allows you to play a piece of media before another piece of media (i.e. a trailer before a movie, or a network bumper before an episode of a show)
-- **IItemResolver** - Allows you to define custom media types
-- **ILibraryPostScanTask** - Allows you to define a task that fires after scanning a library
-- **IMetadataSaver** - Allows you to define a metadata standard that Jellyfin can use to write metadata
-- **IResolverIgnoreRule** - Allows you to define subpaths that are ignored by media resolvers for use with another function (i.e. you wanted to have a theme song for each tv series stored in a subfolder that could be accessed by your plugin for playback in a menu).
-- **IScheduledTask** - Allows you to create a scheduled task that will appear in the scheduled task lists on the dashboard.
 
-There are loads of other interfaces that can be used, but you'll need to poke around the API to get some info. If you're an expert on a particular interface, you should help [contribute some documentation](https://docs.jellyfin.org/general/contributing/index.html)!
+### Directory Structure
-
-### 4b. Use plugin aimed interfaces to add custom functionality
-
-If your plugin doesn't fit perfectly neatly into a predefined interface, never fear, there are a set of interfaces and classes that allow your plugin to extend Jellyfin any which way you please. Here's a quick overview on how to use them
-
-- **IPluginConfigurationPage** - Allows you to have a plugin config page on the dashboard. If you used one of the quickstart example projects, a premade page with some useful components to work with has been created for you! If not you can check out this guide here for how to whip one up.
-
-- **IServerEntryPoint** - Allows you to run code at server startup that will stay in memory. You can make as many of these as you need and it is wildly useful for loading configs or persisting state. **Be aware that your main plugin class (IBasePlugin) cannot also be a IServerEntryPoint.**
-
-- **ControllerBase** - Allows you to define custom REST-API endpoints. This is the default ASP.NET Web-API controller. You can use it exactly as you would in a normal Web-API project. Learn more about it [here](https://docs.microsoft.com/aspnet/core/web-api/?view=aspnetcore-5.0).
-
-Likewise you might need to get data and services from the Jellyfin core, Jellyfin provides a number of interfaces you can add as parameters to your plugin constructor which are then made available in your project (you can see the 2 mandatory ones that are needed by the plugin system in the constructor as is).
-
-- **IBlurayExaminer** - Allows you to examine blu-ray folders
-- **IDtoService** - Allows you to create data transport objects, presumably to send to other plugins or to the core
-- **ILibraryManager** - Allows you to directly access the media libraries without hopping through the API
-- **ILocalizationManager** - Allows you tap into the main localization engine which governs translations, rating systems, units etc...
-- **INetworkManager** - Allows you to get information about the server's networking status
-- **IServerApplicationPaths** - Allows you to get the running server's paths
-- **IServerConfigurationManager** - Allows you to write or read server configuration data into the application paths
-- **ITaskManager** - Allows you to execute and manipulate scheduled tasks
-- **IUserManager** - Allows you to retrieve user info and user library related info
-- **IXmlSerializer** - Allows you to use the main xml serializer
-- **IZipClient** - Allows you to use the core zip client for compressing and decompressing data
-
-## 5. Create a Repository
-
-- [See blog post](https://jellyfin.org/posts/plugin-updates/)
-
-## 6. Set Up Debugging
-
-Debugging can be set up by creating tasks which will be executed when running the plugin project. The specifics on setting up these tasks are not included as they may differ from IDE to IDE. The following list describes the general process:
-
-- Compile the plugin in debug mode.
-- Create the plugin directory if it doesn't exist.
-- Copy the plugin into your server's plugin directory. The server will then execute it.
-- Make sure to set the working directory of the program being debugged to the working directory of the Jellyfin Server.
-- Start the server.
-
-Some IDEs like Visual Studio Code may need the following compile flags to compile the plugin:
-
-```shell
-dotnet build Your-Plugin.sln /property:GenerateFullPaths=true /consoleloggerparameters:NoSummary
-```
-
-These flags generate the full paths for file names and **do not** generate a summary during the build process as this may lead to duplicate errors in the problem panel of your IDE.
-
-### 6.a Set Up Debugging on Visual Studio
-
-Visual Studio allows developers to connect to other processes and debug them, setting breakpoints and inspecting the variables of the program. We can set this up following this steps:
-On this section we will explain how to set up our solution to enable debugging before the server starts.
-
-1. Right-click on the solution, And click on Add -> Existing Project...
-2. Locate Jellyfin executable in your installation folder and click on 'Open'. It is called `Jellyfin.exe`. Now The solution will have a new "Project" called Jellyfin. This is the executable, not the source code of Jellyfin.
-3. Right-click on this new project and click on 'Set up as Startup Project'
-4. Right-click on this new project and click on 'Properties'
-5. Make sure that the 'Attach' parameter is set to 'No'
-
-From now on, everytime you click on start from Visual Studio, it will start Jellyfin attached to the debugger!
-
-The only thing left to do is to compile the project as it is specified a few lines above and you are done.
-
-### 6.b Automate the Setup on Visual Studio Code
-
-Visual Studio Code allows developers to automate the process of starting all necessary dependencies to start debugging the plugin. This guide assumes the reader is familiar with the [documentation on debugging in Visual Studio Code](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/editor/debugging) and has read the documentation in this file. It is assumed that the Jellyfin Server has already been compiled once. However, should one desire to automatically compile the server before the start of the debugging session, this can be easily implemented, but is not further discussed here.
-
-A full example, which aims to be portable may be found in this repo's `.vscode` folder.
-
-This example expects you to clone `jellyfin`, `jellyfin-web` and `jellyfin-plugin-template` under the same parent directory, though you can customize this in `settings.json`
-
-1. Create a `settings.json` file inside your `.vscode` folder, to specify common options specific to your local setup.
-   ```jsonc
-    {
-        // jellyfinDir : The directory of the cloned jellyfin server project
-        // This needs to be built once before it can be used
-        "jellyfinDir"     : "${workspaceFolder}/../jellyfin/Jellyfin.Server",
-        // jellyfinWebDir : The directory of the cloned jellyfin-web project
-        // This needs to be built once before it can be used
-        "jellyfinWebDir"  : "${workspaceFolder}/../jellyfin-web",
-        // jellyfinDataDir : the root data directory for a running jellyfin instance
-        // This is where jellyfin stores its configs, plugins, metadata etc
-        // This is platform specific by default, but on Windows defaults to
-        // ${env:LOCALAPPDATA}/jellyfin
-        "jellyfinDataDir" : "${env:LOCALAPPDATA}/jellyfin",
-        // The name of the plugin
-        "pluginName" : "Jellyfin.Plugin.Template",
-    }
-   ```
-
-1. To automate the launch process, create a new `launch.json` file for C# projects inside the `.vscode` folder. The example below shows only the relevant parts of the file. Adjustments to your specific setup and operating system may be required.
-
-   ```jsonc
-    {
-        // Paths and plugin names are configured in settings.json
-        "version": "0.2.0",
-        "configurations": [
-            {
-                "type": "coreclr",
-                "name": "Launch",
-                "request": "launch",
-                "preLaunchTask": "build-and-copy",
-                "program": "${config:jellyfinDir}/bin/Debug/net6.0/jellyfin.dll",
-                "args": [
-                //"--nowebclient"
-                "--webdir",
-                "${config:jellyfinWebDir}/dist/"
-                ],
-                "cwd": "${config:jellyfinDir}",
-            }
-        ]
-    }
 
 ```

+Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay/
-   The `request` type is specified as `launch`, as this `launch.json` file will start the Jellyfin Server process. The `preLaunchTask` defines a task that will run before the Jellyfin Server starts. More on this later. It is important to set the `program` path to the Jellyin Server program and set the current working directory (`cwd`) to the working directory of the Jellyfin Server.

-2. Create a `tasks.json` file inside your `.vscode` folder and specify a `build-and-copy` task that will run in `sequence` order. This tasks depends on multiple other tasks and all of those other tasks can be defined as simple `shell` tasks that run commands like the `cp` command to copy a file. The sequence to run those tasks in is given below. Please note that it might be necessary to adjust the examples for your specific setup and operating system.

-        "dependsOrder": "sequence",
-        "dependsOn": ["build", "make-plugin-dir", "copy-dll"]
-        },
-    ```
-    2.  A build task. This task builds the plugin without generating summary, but with full paths for file names enabled.
-
-        ```jsonc
-            {
-            // Build the plugin
-            "label": "build",

-            "group": "build",
-            "presentation": {
-                "reveal": "silent"
-            },
-            "problemMatcher": "$msCompile"
-            },
 ```
 
-    3.  A tasks which creates the necessary plugin directory and a sub-folder for the specific plugin. The plugin directory is located below the [data directory](https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/administration/configuration.html) of the Jellyfin Server. As an example, the following path can be used for the bookshelf plugin: `$HOME/.local/share/jellyfin/plugins/Bookshelf/`
+### Key Components
-        ```jsonc
-            {
-                // Ensure the plugin directory exists before trying to use it
-                "label": "make-plugin-dir",
-                "type": "shell",
-                "command": "mkdir",
-                "args": [
-                "-Force",
-                "-Path",
-                "${config:jellyfinDataDir}/plugins/${config:pluginName}/"
-                ]
-            },
-        ```
 
-    4.  A tasks which copies the plugin dll which has been built in step 2.1. The file is copied into it's specific plugin directory within the server's plugin directory.
+1. **API Client** (`SRFApiClient`): HTTP requests to SRF Integration Layer and Play v3 API, with proxy support
+2. **Channel** (`SRFPlayChannel`): SRF Play channel with Latest, Trending, and Live Sports folders
+3. **Stream Proxy** (`StreamProxyService` + `StreamProxyController`): HLS proxy that handles Akamai token auth, manifest URL rewriting, deferred authentication, and token refresh for both VOD and livestreams
+4. **Stream Resolver** (`StreamUrlResolver`): Selects optimal HLS stream by quality preference, filters DRM content
+5. **Metadata Cache** (`MetadataCache`): Thread-safe `ConcurrentDictionary` cache with dynamic TTL for livestreams
+6. **Media Composition Fetcher** (`MediaCompositionFetcher`): Cached wrapper around API client for media composition requests
+7. **Content Providers** (`SRFSeriesProvider`, `SRFEpisodeProvider`, `SRFImageProvider`, `SRFMediaProvider`): Jellyfin integration for series, episodes, images, and media sources
+8. **Scheduled Tasks**: Automatic content refresh and expiration management
+9. **Utilities**: Business unit extensions, MIME type helpers, URN parsing, placeholder image generation

-        ```
 
-## Licensing
+### Content Limitations
 
-Licensing is a complex topic. This repository features a GPLv3 license template that can be used to provide a good default license for your plugin. You may alter this if you like, but if you do a permissive license must be chosen.
+- **No DRM content**: Only non-DRM protected content is accessible (no Widevine/FairPlay)
+- **No live TV channels**: Main channels (SRF 1, SRF zwei, SRF info) use DRM and are not supported
+- **Sports livestreams supported**: Scheduled sports events (skiing, F1, football, etc.) work without DRM
+- **Content expiration**: SRF content has validity periods, plugin tracks and removes expired content
+- **Upcoming events**: Sports events appear before they start but require channel refresh to play once live
+- **No subtitles**: Subtitle support not currently implemented
 
-Due to how plugins in Jellyfin work, when your plugin is compiled into a binary, it will link against the various Jellyfin binary NuGet packages. These packages are licensed under the GPLv3. Thus, due to the nature and restrictions of the GPL, the binary plugin you get will also be licensed under the GPLv3.
+### Extensibility
 
-If you accept the default GPLv3 license from this template, all will be good. However if you choose a different license, please keep this fact in mind, as it might not always be obvious that an, e.g. MIT-licensed plugin would become GPLv3 when compiled.
+The plugin is designed to support all Swiss broadcasting units:
+- **SRF** (Schweizer Radio und Fernsehen - German)
+- **RTS** (Radio Télévision Suisse - French)  
+- **RSI** (Radiotelevisione svizzera - Italian)
+- **RTR** (Radiotelevisiun Svizra Rumantscha - Romansh)
+- **SWI** (Swiss World International)
 
-Please note that this also means making "proprietary", source-unavailable, or otherwise "hidden" plugins for public consumption is not permitted. To build a Jellyfin plugin for distribution to others, it must be under the GPLv3 or a permissive open-source license that can be linked against the GPLv3.
+Currently focused on SRF but easily extensible.
+
+## Development
+
+The plugin includes:
+- Complete API integration with SRF Play (Integration Layer v2.0 and Play v3)
+- **Live sports streaming** with scheduled event detection
+- Channel with Latest, Trending, and Live Sports folders
+- Metadata providers for series and episodes
+- Image fetching and caching
+- HLS stream playback with Akamai token authentication
+- Automatic content expiration handling
+- Scheduled tasks for content refresh
+- Smart caching with dynamic TTL for upcoming livestreams
+
+### Known Issues
+
+- Some clients may experience issues with hardware decoding (appears to be client-specific)
+- Some edge cases may need additional handling
+- Performance optimization may be needed for very large content catalogs

+# SRF Play Plugin - Usage Guide
+
+## Finding the Channel in Jellyfin
+
+After installing and enabling the plugin, you can access SRF Play content through the **Channels** feature in Jellyfin.
+
+### Step-by-Step Instructions:
+
+1. **Open Jellyfin** in your web browser
+
+2. **Navigate to Channels**:
+   - On the Jellyfin home screen, look in the left sidebar menu
+   - Click on **"Live TV & Channels"** or **"Channels"**
+   - You should see "SRF Play" listed among your available channels
+
+3. **Browse Content**:
+   - Click on the "SRF Play" channel
+   - You'll see two main folders:
+     - **Latest Videos** - Recently published SRF content
+     - **Trending Videos** - Popular content from SRF
+
+4. **Watch Videos**:
+   - Click into either folder to browse videos
+   - Click on any video to play it
+   - Videos will stream directly via HLS
+
+### Alternative Navigation:
+
+If you don't see a "Channels" section in the sidebar:
+
+1. Go to **Dashboard** (gear icon or Admin menu)
+2. Click on **"Live TV"** in the left menu
+3. Look for **"Channels"** section
+4. Enable the "SRF Play" channel if it's not already enabled
+
+### Configuration:
+
+To configure the plugin (change business unit, quality, etc.):
+
+1. Go to **Dashboard** → **Plugins**
+2. Find **"SRF Play"** in the list
+3. Click on it to access settings
+4. Configure:
+   - **Business Unit**: SRF, RTS, RSI, RTR, or SWI
+   - **Quality Preference**: Auto, SD, or HD
+   - **Enable Latest Content**: Show latest videos
+   - **Enable Trending Content**: Show trending videos
+
+### Troubleshooting:
+
+**Channel not appearing?**
+- Restart Jellyfin after installing the plugin
+- Check Dashboard → Plugins to ensure SRF Play is enabled
+- Check the plugin configuration (Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play)
+
+**No videos showing?**
+- Ensure "Enable Latest Content" and/or "Enable Trending Content" are checked in plugin settings
+- Check Jellyfin logs for any error messages (Dashboard → Logs)
+- Verify your Jellyfin server has internet access to reach `il.srgssr.ch`
+
+**Videos won't play?**
+- Check your Jellyfin server can access HLS streams
+- Verify firewall settings allow outbound HTTPS connections
+- Check the quality setting - try "Auto" if HD/SD isn't working
+
+### What Content is Available?
+
+- **Latest Videos**: The most recently published content from the selected business unit (SRF, RTS, etc.)
+- **Trending Videos**: Popular/trending content from the business unit
+- All videos are VOD (Video on Demand) - no live TV channels due to DRM restrictions
+
+### Content Expiration:
+
+SRF content has expiration dates. The plugin:
+- Automatically filters out expired content
+- Runs scheduled tasks to remove expired items from your library
+- Checks expiration every 24 hours (configurable)
+
+### Notes:
+
+- Only non-DRM content is accessible (no Widevine protected streams)
+- Live TV channels are not available due to DRM
+- Content availability depends on the selected business unit and SRF's content policies
+- The plugin shows up to 50 videos per category
+
+## Need Help?
+
+If you encounter issues:
+1. Check Jellyfin logs (Dashboard → Logs)
+2. Verify plugin configuration
+3. Ensure your network allows access to `il.srgssr.ch`
+4. Report issues on the plugin's GitHub repository
