V79 – Unable to Launch Third-Party Player from Jellyfin and Other Media Servers

摘要：
升级到 V79 后（可能从 V77 或 V78 开始），点击 Jellyfin 或其他媒体服务器的视频链接不再启动已安装的第三方播放器（例如 4XVR Player、Skybox、Moon VR）。系统不会跳转到播放器，而是会卡住并黑屏一段时间。
如果事先打开第三方播放器，然后在 Android 版 Jellyfin 中点击视频链接，会出现一个播放器选择窗口（类似于 Android 的“选择应用”提示），但该窗口不起作用——无法选择播放器，也无法开始播放。

细节：

以前的行为（V76 之前）：
单击来自 Jellyfin 或其他媒体服务器的视频链接将自动启动已安装的第三方播放器（例如 4XVR 播放器）并正常播放视频。
当前行为（V77–V79）：
点击视频链接→无重定向→黑屏近一分钟。
先打开第三方播放器 → 打开 Jellyfin for Android → 点击视频链接 → 出现“选择播放器”窗口 → 无法选择播放器 → 视频无法播放。

影响：
无法使用首选的第三方播放器观看3D、全景等视频，严重影响VR媒体观看体验。

测试条件：

应用程序： Jellyfin Android应用程序
系统版本： V79
设备： Meta Quest 3
测试的第三方播放器： 4XVR Player、Skybox、Moon VR

要求：

修复点击媒体服务器的视频链接时系统无法启动第三方播放器的问题。
如果无法短期修复，请提供回滚到稳定的 V76 版本的方法。
在未来的更新中添加官方回滚功能，以更有效地处理类似情况。

致谢：
感谢 Meta Quest 团队持续的工作和改进。此功能是我日常使用的重要组成部分，希望它能尽快恢复。

    Title: V79 – Unable to Launch Third-Party Player from Jellyfin and Other Media Servers (Black Screen + Unusable Player Selection)

    Summary:
    After upgrading to V79 (possibly starting from V77 or V78), clicking a video link from Jellyfin or other media servers no longer launches installed third-party players (such as 4XVR Player, Skybox, Moon VR). Instead of jumping to the player, the system freezes with a black screen for a while.
    If the third-party player is opened beforehand and then a video link is clicked in Jellyfin for Android, a player selection window (similar to Android's “Choose an app” prompt) will appear, but it is non-functional—no player can be selected, and playback does not start.

    Details:

    Previous behavior (before V76):
    Clicking a video link from Jellyfin or other media servers would automatically launch the installed third-party player (e.g., 4XVR Player) and play the video normally.

    Current behavior (V77–V79):

    Click video link → No redirection → Black screen for almost one minute.

    Open a third-party player first → Open Jellyfin for Android → Click video link → “Choose player” window appears → Cannot select any player → Video does not play.

    Impact:
    Unable to watch 3D, panoramic, or other videos using preferred third-party players, significantly affecting the VR media viewing experience.

    Test Conditions:

    App: Jellyfin Android App

    System Version: V79

    Device: Meta Quest 3

    Third-Party Players Tested: 4XVR Player, Skybox, Moon VR

    Requests:

    Fix the issue preventing the system from launching third-party players when clicking video links from media servers.

    If a short-term fix is not possible, please provide a method to roll back to the stable V76 version.

    Add an official rollback feature in future updates to handle similar situations more effectively.

    Thanks:
    Thank you to the Meta Quest team for your continued work and improvements. This feature is an important part of my daily use, and I hope it can be restored soon.
