Selenium Usage with Sportyfin

Using Selenium with Sportyfin can provide better stream results. Selenium is used to look at network traffic on streaming sites in order to find links that may have not been discovered otherwise. Bellow are some things to note about using Selenium with Sportyfin:

Speed

Using Selenium will greatly reduce the speed at which Sportyfin is able to find streaming links. This is because Sportyfin accesses the streaming site for 1 second in order to gather network traffic. Therefore, using Selenium can greatly reduce speeds if, for example, Sportyfin finds 100 streaming sites.
