Research direction
The issue requests the ability to serve external links in a media player. Investigate the current file serving logic in the repository, particularly the routes and controllers that handle media playback. Look for any existing support for external URLs and determine what changes are needed to allow the server to accept and stream external links. The repository's documentation and issue comments may provide additional context.
