Currently, JellyWatch only selects and plays a single random file when an item's details page has multiple theme music tracks, theme videos, or trailers. I would like an option for JellyWatch to automatically queue and play all available theme/trailer files sequentially in alphabetical and numerical order (0–9, A–Z). Use Case & Problem: I meticulously organize my media library's themes and extras in chronological order by season and type. For example, my show folder contains: * 01 - Overlord - S01 - NC OP1 - Clattanoia [OxT].mp4 * 02 - Overlord - S01 - NC ED1 - L.L.L. [MYTH & ROID].mp4 * 03 - Overlord - S02 - NC OP1 - GO CRY GO [OxT].mp4 * 04 - Overlord - S02 - NC ED1 - HYDRA [MYTH & ROID].mp4 Because Jellyfin itself doesn't natively support ordered playback for multiple theme items, having JellyWatch handle this client-side would be a huge quality-of-life upgrade for users who share heavily curated libraries. Proposed Functionality: * Sequential Queueing: Instead of picking a single random file, fetch all available theme music, theme video, or trailer assets associated with the item page. * Deterministic Sorting: Sort and play the files sequentially based on their filenames (0-9, A-Z). There could also be a toggle in the playback settings to choose if for example theme videos should be played sequentally or random Thank you for considering this feature and for your work on JellyWatch!
