Actually this app is really awesome but there is a small issue with the video slider in Android TV when I am moving slider forward or backward the slider automatically goes to the starting position of the movie plz try to fix this issue as soon as possible and I have used emby as well the UI of emby is awesome but I want this type of UI in open source software like jellyfin. I hope jellyfin team will work to make their free project better than other competitors like emby...

It's got it's good moments but it's also pretty buggy. I really want to support open source and this app in particular but I'm done having to reset and relogin when it gets weird on me.
