Interesting I had the exact same problem, wonder how you handle searching / playing the specific game you wanna watch (in jellyfin I suppose?)

The way I solved it is write a small server process that 1. Takes in a game keyword I want to watch (eg Celtics) 2. Go on to stream site, scrape the game and follow to the video URL 3. Launch a chromium docker instance w. URL and send JS to click on the play button lol (CDP) 4. The stream site sometimes get stuck, so there's also refresh endpoint to relaunch the above process ^

I installed Wayland display server (kiosk mode) in Homelab and use HDMI to play on TV. And the frontend I use home assistant for entering the game
