TV Model: QE85Q60DAUXXH

I can report that I managed to successfully install the JellyFin app by using v1.8.4.4-beta. Please see how I approached the issue:

Tried to install the app the first time and it failed with the following error: "Installation failed: Value cannot be null. (Parameter "path1")". I closed the .exe and opened it up once again. This time, certificate was already created and in the settings menu there are two options for it: "Jelly2Ssam (default)" and "Jelly2Sam". Although they are the same, choosing the option without 'default' allowed me to install the JF app successfully on my TV. If I tried to use the 'default' option, "value cannot be null" error would come out.

I tried to replicate these steps in v1.8.4.1, but without success. It shows the same error as in the bug report.

Managed to install the app two times by following the steps above for v1.8.4.4-beta.

@Arikaj thanks, I saw in the loggin that also permitInstall was called, that's probably the bug you seen.

That function is only required for older models TVs and yours is new so it isn't required to execute that function cause it won't work, i fixed it by simple putting a check around it;

if(AppSettings.Default.PermitInstall)
  await AllowPermitInstall(tvIpAddress);

That should fix the issue
