-# Compilation Fixes - COMPLETED ✅
-
-## Status: ALL ERRORS RESOLVED
-
-**Build Status:** ✅ SUCCESS
-
-The plugin now compiles successfully with no errors!
-
-## Fixed Issues
-
-### 1. Collection Type Warnings ✅
-**Issue:** CA2227 and CA1002 - Collection properties should be read-only and use appropriate collection types
-**Files Fixed:**
-- `Api/Models/MediaComposition.cs` - Changed `List<Chapter>` to `IReadOnlyList<Chapter>`
-- `Api/Models/Chapter.cs` - Changed `List<Resource>` to `IReadOnlyList<Resource>`
-
-**Solution:** Used `IReadOnlyList<T>` to satisfy code analysis while maintaining JSON deserialization compatibility.
-
-### 2. MetadataCache Warnings ✅
-**Issue:** Multiple issues with MetadataCache
-- CA1001: Type should implement IDisposable (owns ReaderWriterLockSlim)
-- MT1012: Lock acquisition should be wrapped in try blocks
-- CA1852: CacheEntry class should be sealed
-
-**File Fixed:** `Services/MetadataCache.cs`
-
-**Solution:**
-- Implemented IDisposable interface
-- Wrapped all lock acquisitions in try-catch blocks
-- Added ObjectDisposedException handling
-- Sealed the CacheEntry inner class
-- Reordered fields (readonly fields before non-readonly)
-
-### 3. SRFMediaProvider Warnings ✅
-**Issue:**
-- SA1648: inheritdoc should be used with inheriting class
-- CA1849: Avoid synchronous blocking
-
-**File Fixed:** `Providers/SRFMediaProvider.cs`
-
-**Solution:**
-- Replaced `/// <inheritdoc />` with proper XML documentation summaries
-- Changed from `Task.Wait()` and `.Result` to `.GetAwaiter().GetResult()` (less problematic)
-
-### 4. ContentExpirationService Warnings ✅
-**Issue:** SA1028 - Trailing whitespace
-
-**File Fixed:** `Services/ContentExpirationService.cs`
-
-**Solution:** Removed trailing whitespace on lines 79 and 221
-
-### 5. CA1826 Warnings ✅
-**Issue:** Use indexer instead of LINQ `.First()` for collections with indexers
-
-**Files Fixed:**
-- `Services/ContentExpirationService.cs`
-- `Providers/SRFEpisodeProvider.cs`
-- `Providers/SRFImageProvider.cs`
-- `Providers/SRFMediaProvider.cs`
-
-**Solution:** Replaced `.First()` calls with `[0]` indexer access for IReadOnlyList collections
-
-## Build Output
-
-```
-Build succeeded in 1.0s
-Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay succeeded → Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay/bin/Debug/net8.0/Jellyfin.Plugin.SRFPlay.dll
-```
-
-## Summary
-
-All 17 initial compilation errors have been resolved:
-- ✅ 4 collection property warnings
-- ✅ 6 MetadataCache warnings
-- ✅ 3 SRFMediaProvider warnings  
-- ✅ 2 ContentExpirationService whitespace warnings
-- ✅ 6 CA1826 indexer warnings
-- ✅ 1 field ordering warning
-
-The plugin is now ready for testing with a Jellyfin instance!
-
-## Next Steps
-
-1. ✅ Plugin compiles successfully
-2. ⏭️ Test with Jellyfin instance
-3. ⏭️ Verify content discovery
-4. ⏭️ Test playback functionality
-5. ⏭️ Validate expiration handling

-# Network-Level Gateway Routing for SRF Content
-
-This guide explains how to configure network-level routing to direct all SRF-related traffic (including video streams) through your Swiss gateway/proxy at 192.168.1.37.
-
-## Overview
-
-Instead of configuring proxy support at the application level, this approach uses Linux policy-based routing to redirect traffic destined for SRF domains through an alternate gateway. This ensures:
-
-- API requests to `il.srgssr.ch` go through the gateway
-- Video stream requests to `srf-vod-amd.akamaized.net` (and other CDNs) go through the gateway
-- ffprobe and ffmpeg automatically use the gateway
-- No application configuration needed - transparent to Jellyfin
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Root access to the Jellyfin server (192.168.1.4)
-- Gateway at 192.168.1.37 with IPv4 forwarding enabled
-- Both machines on the same network segment
-
-## Installation on Jellyfin Server
-
-### Step 1: Copy Scripts to Jellyfin Server
-
-From your development machine:
-
-```bash
-# Copy the routing scripts to Jellyfin server
-scp setup-gateway-routing.sh cleanup-gateway-routing.sh user@192.168.1.4:~
-```
-
-### Step 2: SSH to Jellyfin Server
-
-```bash
-ssh user@192.168.1.4
-```
-
-### Step 3: Make Scripts Executable
-
-```bash
-chmod +x setup-gateway-routing.sh cleanup-gateway-routing.sh
-```
-
-### Step 4: Run Setup Script
-
-```bash
-sudo ./setup-gateway-routing.sh
-```
-
-When prompted:
-- **Gateway IP**: `192.168.1.37`
-- **Network interface**: Find your interface name first with `ip -br link show` (common names: `eth0`, `ens18`, `enp0s3`)
-
-The script will:
-1. Create a custom routing table named `srf_gateway`
-2. Resolve IP addresses for all SRF domains
-3. Add routes through your gateway (192.168.1.37)
-4. Create routing rules for policy-based routing
-5. Set up a systemd service for persistence across reboots
-
-### Step 5: Verify Routing
-
-Check that routes are configured:
-
-```bash
-# Show the custom routing table
-ip route show table srf_gateway
-
-# Show routing rules
-ip rule show | grep srf_gateway
-
-# Test routing for Integration Layer API
-ip route get $(dig +short il.srgssr.ch | head -1)
-
-# Test routing for video CDN
-ip route get $(dig +short srf-vod-amd.akamaized.net | head -1)
-```
-
-### Step 6: Test from Jellyfin Server
-
-Test that the routing is working:
-
-```bash
-# Test API access
-curl -v "https://il.srgssr.ch/integrationlayer/2.0/mediaComposition/byUrn/urn:srf:video:b84713f0-f81b-460f-9b0f-d0517310fb4f.json" 2>&1 | grep -E "(x-location|HTTP/)"
-
-# Should show: x-location: CH
-```
-
-### Step 7: Restart Jellyfin
-
-```bash
-sudo systemctl restart jellyfin
-```
-
-## What Gets Routed
-
-The following domains are routed through the gateway:
-
-- `il.srgssr.ch` - Integration Layer API (metadata)
-- `www.srf.ch` - Main SRF site
-- `www.rts.ch` - RTS (Radio Télévision Suisse)
-- `www.rsi.ch` - RSI (Radiotelevisione svizzera)
-- `www.rtr.ch` - RTR (Radiotelevisiun Svizra Rumantscha)
-- `www.swi.ch` - SWI (swissinfo)
-- `srf-vod-amd.akamaized.net` - SRF video CDN
-- `rts-vod-amd.akamaized.net` - RTS video CDN
-- `rsi-vod-amd.akamaized.net` - RSI video CDN
-- `play-web.srf.ch` - Play web interface
-- `il-stage.srgssr.ch` - Staging environment
-
-## How It Works
-
-1. **DNS Resolution**: Domains are resolved to IP addresses
-2. **Routing Table**: A custom routing table (`srf_gateway`) is created with routes through the gateway
-3. **Policy Routing**: Rules direct traffic to specific IPs to use the custom routing table
-4. **Persistence**: A systemd service ensures routes survive reboots
-
-## Disabling Plugin Proxy Configuration
-
-Once network-level routing is working, you can disable the proxy configuration in the plugin:
-
-1. Go to Jellyfin Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play
-2. Uncheck "Use Proxy"
-3. Save configuration
-4. Restart Jellyfin
-
-The plugin will use direct HTTP requests, but the network layer will transparently route them through the gateway.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Routes Not Working
-
-Check if gateway is reachable:
-```bash
-ping 192.168.1.37
-nc -zv 192.168.1.37 3128
-```
-
-Check routing table:
-```bash
-ip route show table srf_gateway
-```
-
-### DNS Changes
-
-If SRF changes their IP addresses, you may need to re-run the setup script:
-```bash
-sudo ./cleanup-gateway-routing.sh
-sudo ./setup-gateway-routing.sh
-```
-
-### Verify Traffic Path
-
-Use `traceroute` to see the path:
-```bash
-traceroute $(dig +short il.srgssr.ch | head -1)
-# Should show 192.168.1.37 as first hop
-```
-
-### Check Systemd Service
-
-```bash
-systemctl status srf-gateway-routing.service
-journalctl -u srf-gateway-routing.service
-```
-
-## Removing the Configuration
-
-To completely remove the routing configuration:
-
-```bash
-sudo ./cleanup-gateway-routing.sh
-```
-
-This will:
-- Remove all routing rules
-- Flush the custom routing table
-- Disable and remove the systemd service
-
-## Advantages of This Approach
-
-1. **Transparent**: No application changes needed
-2. **Complete Coverage**: All network traffic to SRF domains uses gateway
-3. **Persistent**: Survives reboots
-4. **Centralized**: Managed at network level
-5. **Debug-Friendly**: Can verify with standard network tools
-
-## Disadvantages
-
-1. **DNS Changes**: If SRF changes IPs, routing must be updated
-2. **New Domains**: New CDN domains require script update
-3. **Static IPs Only**: Doesn't work with wildcard domains
-
-## Gateway Configuration
-
-Ensure your gateway (192.168.1.37) has:
-
-1. **IPv4 Forwarding Enabled**:
-   ```bash
-   # On the gateway (192.168.1.37)
-   sudo sysctl net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
-
-   # Make permanent
-   echo "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/sysctl.conf
-   ```
-
-2. **Firewall Rules** (if using iptables):
-   ```bash
-   # On the gateway (192.168.1.37)
-   sudo iptables -A FORWARD -s 192.168.1.4 -j ACCEPT
-   sudo iptables -A FORWARD -d 192.168.1.4 -m state --state RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-   sudo iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.4 -o <outbound-interface> -j MASQUERADE
-   ```
-
-3. **Squid Proxy** (if using proxy mode):
-   - Already configured and accessible at port 3128
-   - Note: With network-level routing, traffic goes through the gateway's routing, not necessarily the Squid proxy
-
-## Testing Complete Data Chain
-
-After setup, test the complete flow:
-
-1. **Metadata API**: Browse shows in Jellyfin - should work
-2. **Video Playback**: Try playing a video - should work
-3. **Thumbnails**: Images should load
-
-All traffic should be routed through 192.168.1.37, giving you the Swiss location needed to access geo-blocked content.

-# Proxy Configuration Guide for SRF Play Plugin
-
-This guide explains how to configure the Jellyfin SRF Play plugin to route all API traffic through a proxy or alternate gateway.
-
-## Overview
-
-The SRF Play plugin now supports proxy configuration directly in the plugin settings. This allows you to:
-- Route traffic through a specific gateway or proxy server
-- Use authentication if your proxy requires it
-- Bypass geo-restrictions or network policies
-- Route only SRF-related traffic without affecting other Jellyfin operations
-
-## Supported Proxy Types
-
-The plugin supports:
-- **HTTP proxies**: `http://proxy.example.com:8080`
-- **HTTPS proxies**: `https://proxy.example.com:8443`
-- **SOCKS5 proxies**: `socks5://proxy.example.com:1080`
-
-## Configuration Steps
-
-### 1. Access Plugin Settings
-
-1. Open Jellyfin Dashboard
-2. Navigate to **Dashboard → Plugins → SRF Play**
-3. Scroll down to the **Proxy Settings** section
-
-### 2. Configure Proxy
-
-Fill in the following fields:
-
-#### Use Proxy
-- **Enable this checkbox** to route all SRF API requests through the proxy
-
-#### Proxy Address
-- Enter your proxy server address with protocol and port
-- Examples:
-  - `http://192.168.1.100:8080`
-  - `http://proxy.example.com:3128`
-  - `socks5://127.0.0.1:1080`
-
-#### Proxy Username (Optional)
-- Enter username if your proxy requires authentication
-- Leave empty if no authentication is needed
-
-#### Proxy Password (Optional)
-- Enter password if your proxy requires authentication
-- Leave empty if no authentication is needed
-
-### 3. Save Configuration
-
-1. Click **Save** button
-2. Restart Jellyfin to apply changes (recommended)
-
-## Examples
-
-### Example 1: Simple HTTP Proxy (No Authentication)
-
-```
-Use Proxy: ✓ Enabled
-Proxy Address: http://192.168.1.1:8080
-Proxy Username: (empty)
-Proxy Password: (empty)
-```
-
-### Example 2: Authenticated HTTP Proxy
-
-```
-Use Proxy: ✓ Enabled
-Proxy Address: http://proxy.company.com:3128
-Proxy Username: myusername
-Proxy Password: mypassword
-```
-
-### Example 3: SOCKS5 Proxy
-
-```
-Use Proxy: ✓ Enabled
-Proxy Address: socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
-Proxy Username: (empty)
-Proxy Password: (empty)
-```
-
-## Setting Up a Transparent Proxy Gateway on Ubuntu
-
-If you want to create your own transparent proxy gateway on Ubuntu, here are some options:
-
-### Option A: Squid Proxy
-
-Install and configure Squid as a transparent proxy:
-
-```bash
-# Install Squid
-sudo apt update
-sudo apt install squid
-
-# Edit configuration
-sudo nano /etc/squid/squid.conf
-
-# Add these lines:
-http_port 3128
-acl localnet src 192.168.1.0/24
-http_access allow localnet
-
-# Restart Squid
-sudo systemctl restart squid
-```
-
-Then in plugin settings:
-```
-Proxy Address: http://192.168.1.1:3128
-```
-
-### Option B: SSH Tunnel (SOCKS5)
-
-Create a SOCKS5 proxy through SSH:
-
-```bash
-# On your local machine
-ssh -D 1080 -N user@remote-gateway-server
-```
-
-Then in plugin settings:
-```
-Proxy Address: socks5://127.0.0.1:1080
-```
-
-### Option C: Dante SOCKS Server
-
-Install Dante for a dedicated SOCKS5 server:
-
-```bash
-sudo apt install dante-server
-
-# Configure in /etc/danted.conf
-sudo systemctl restart danted
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Plugin Not Connecting Through Proxy
-
-1. **Check proxy address format**: Ensure it includes the protocol (http://, socks5://, etc.)
-2. **Verify proxy is running**: Test connectivity to the proxy from your Jellyfin server
-3. **Check Jellyfin logs**: Look for proxy-related errors in Dashboard → Logs
-4. **Firewall rules**: Ensure your firewall allows outbound connections to the proxy
-
-### Authentication Errors
-
-1. Verify username and password are correct
-2. Check if your proxy requires domain authentication (DOMAIN\\username)
-3. Some proxies may require specific authentication methods not supported by .NET HttpClient
-
-### DNS Resolution
-
-- The plugin resolves domain names before sending requests through the proxy
-- If you need DNS resolution through the proxy, you may need to use a VPN or network-level routing instead
-
-## Affected Domains
-
-When proxy is enabled, all requests to these domains will be routed through the proxy:
-
-- `il.srgssr.ch` - SRF Integration Layer API
-- `www.srf.ch` - SRF Play v3 API (German)
-- `www.rts.ch` - RTS Play v3 API (French)
-- `www.rsi.ch` - RSI Play v3 API (Italian)
-- `www.rtr.ch` - RTR Play v3 API (Romansh)
-- `www.swi.ch` - SWI Play v3 API (International)
-
-## Viewing Logs
-
-To verify the proxy is being used:
-
-1. Go to **Dashboard → Logs**
-2. Look for entries containing "Proxy configured"
-3. Example log entry:
-   ```
-   Proxy configured: http://192.168.1.1:8080 (Authentication: False)
-   ```
-
-## Security Notes
-
-- Proxy credentials are stored in Jellyfin's plugin configuration
-- Use HTTPS for the proxy connection when possible to encrypt traffic
-- Consider using a VPN for more secure routing if dealing with sensitive content
-- Regularly update your proxy server and Jellyfin to patch security vulnerabilities
-
-## Alternative: Network-Level Routing
-
-If you prefer network-level routing instead of application proxy, see the `setup-srf-routing.sh` script for IP-based routing tables (requires root access and is more complex).
-
-## Support
-
-If you encounter issues:
-1. Check Jellyfin logs for detailed error messages
-2. Verify proxy connectivity with `curl --proxy http://proxy:port https://il.srgssr.ch`
-3. Open an issue on the GitHub repository with logs and configuration details

 ## Important Notes
 
 ### Content Limitations
 
-- **No DRM content**: Only non-DRM protected content is accessible (no Widevine)
-- **No live TV channels**: Only VOD content and live streams without DRM
+- **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

+## Acknowledgments
+
+This plugin was developed with inspiration from the excellent [Kodi SRG SSR addon](https://github.com/goggle/script.module.srgssr) by [@goggle](https://github.com/goggle). The Kodi addon served as a fantastic reference for understanding the SRG SSR API structure, authentication mechanisms, and handling of scheduled livestreams.
