Automate things on playback start? (self.jellyfin)

Rather than manually or periodically letting tasks run from Scheduled Tasks, is there a way to run tasks when I start playing a file? For instance, if I start playing an episode of a show I'd like to at least have jellyfin check for matching subtitles and scan it for intro-skipper audio fingerprints.

Home Assistant can track Jellyfin playback status, so there's some kind of API there. Whether or not there's a convenient way to trigger the tasks is another question.
