MiSTerFin Go port
A Go port of MiSTerFin, a Jellyfin client for the MiSTer FPGA, designed to play Jellyfin media on a CRT. The port rewrites the original C client in Go where appropriate and focuses on making improvements, smoothing out rough edges, and adding features to deliver a great Jellyfin player on a 4:3 CRT, with publication planned for others who might be interested.
What it addresses
The original MiSTerFin client had many things that needed fixing, and the author wanted a great Jellyfin player for watching media on their MiSTer-connected CRT.

“MiSTerFin is written in C and I'm much savvier with Go these days, so I (and my helpful Codex prompt) forked it and ported it to Go (where appropriate). I've since been obsessed, making improvements, smoothing out rought edges, and adding features, all get a great Jellyfin player on my CRT.”
