Description

It works great with Material Files in general, the libssh2 is quite a solid and it allows me to do things the Material Files built-in SFTP won't do. For example I can stream movies from a Raspberry Pi I have in a different country :)

You are welcome to steal anything you want from my project, I wrote the java bindings and also some helper classes. I hope that helps somehow :)

A strange issue I found is that when visualizing a 12Mb picture, I noticed that when zooming in/out, the picture visualizer tries to reload the picture. Not sure if this is an issue or expected.

Anyway, thanks for your great app and I hope I can help in any way :)

The issue does not name repository files or tests; clarify whether integration is wanted and investigate the reported picture reload behavior before defining completion criteria.
