But I took a different approach where the metadata of an item (movie, episode, ...) could be linked to multiple files. That way you wouldn't have to deal with different metadata for the same item. The implementation in the GUI seems to be similar because when you click on such an item it will open like a movie set and show you all available items.

But I never finished it because there are so many special and edge cases that need attention like which version do you play when a user chooses "Play from here" and other such stuff.

how can i install this on my windows and android? do i need to compile it ? how you do it? thank you in advance

We should merge this after the next release and let the users tell us where the problems are. This has to be one of the most important pieces of a media center that we don't have in any way at the moment.

I can try to rebase my work but I also have to figure out where I left it, what has already been done and what still needs doing.

When I saw the PR add dynamic URLs to fileItems #12585. This was the first thing that came to mind. Does that PR affect duplicates?
