Prone to happen. I'm just sad mkv files don't seem to allow for an easy way to integrate the interactivity jump-to-chapter part.

Jellyfin will match up chapter data for you :)
Yes but Jellyfin, just like the mkv files it might be playing, doesn't allow for interactive menus within a movie file, which is what I meant. And his specific movie is completely based on interactivity.
Oh right. I suppose you’d then need a map or something 🤷♂️
At one point I think there was a website which when provided with an mkv file allow you to watch the movie and make the decisions. Not sure if it is still around or what it was called
They could easily release this to 4K UHD and Blu-ray if they cared. But it's all just disposable content to them.
It was the only reason I made a Netflix (trial) account.
Guess the black flag rises again
Isn't the big problem that you can't really purate it because of the multiple choice format?
I imagine it would be tough.
