[Playback]: New: playback progress is reported to the Jellyfin server.
[Playback]: New: resume partly played items or start playing from the beginning if desired.
I also had to make some changes to the VideoPlayer, because the VideoHUD
got locked up when the player changed status from Buffering to Buffered
too quickly in succession, which occurs when trying to seek directly
after the application is able to.
Once again I couldn't stop myself from being sidetracked.
[Collections]: Added: allow specifying sort order (Ascending, Descending)
[General]: Improved: Added video fallback page to allow unknown video types to be played, although without extra metadata.
[General]: Improved: Added folder fallback, so unknown collection types are at least displayed without metadata.
Apparently the Jellyfin server may include different fields in the
resposne depending on which SortOrder you use. This causes the model to
generate new roleNames when changing its sortOrder, but the QML part
does not know of this happening and there's no way of notifying the QML
part as far as I'm aware of (if so, let me know). So whenever new
generateFields() is called, it shouldn't reset its roleNames map and
recreate it anew, rather, just append the new roleNames to the current
map. If a model in QML wants to use information used in fields which are
added by changing SortOrder, please add those fields explicitly in
Fields.
* There is a basic collection page, allowing the user to browse through
collections. It has a sort function, that sort of works
* Item cards now show a bar indicating play time
* Item cards now have a black/white (depending on theme) shim, improving
readability.
* The resume watching section now actually loads items
* Pressing the logout button now brings the setup page up again
* Removing a server and readding one of which the hash of the address
has a higher value than the previous one does no longer cause the
application to request a login each time you open it.
* The method for deciding if the user is in setup has been changed. It
now checks if a page in the pageStack has the property _isSetupPage,
which works better than manually keeping track of state.
