Developed STRM playlist support for the mpv-player/mpv repository, enabling the media player to recognize and process .strm files as playlists. This feature allowed mpv to parse both remote URIs and local paths from .strm files by leveraging the existing .m3u playlist handler, ensuring seamless integration with Emby and Jellyfin streaming ecosystems. The implementation focused on minimizing risk by reusing the established playlist subsystem and maintaining backward compatibility, avoiding changes to user-facing controls. Work was completed using C programming and media player development skills, with thorough documentation provided in the commit history to support future extensibility and maintenance.
