Been looking around trying to make mine work. Stupid question, where is the local storage? I'm running it on a TrueNAS box and I can seem to get it to recognize storage locations inside or outside the container. I just get an "[Object response]" error message. Also when I install the older version recommended here, it just says its "superceded" and automatically installs the new one from the Jellyfin repository.

I registered just to answer the solution to your problem.
I bet 100% you are using a seedbox, where you are not the super user.
So youre trying to give it a path like
~/media/intros/Bonzi.mp4
or
/media/intros/Bonzi.mp4
But really  you should be using
/home/hikaru4v/media/intros/Bonzi.mp4

because that is the full path of your folder, you can find this by sshing into your server and running pwd

I haven’t been able to use this plugin since JF 10.8.13 (latest version with which this plugin worked for me). Since then, the plugin does indeed play the pre roll video, but when it ends it gets stuck there. In order for the movie to start, you have to press the play button, it doesn’t play automatically after ther pre roll video (which kinda defeats the purpose of the plugin).

Tried with all combinations of JF and plugin versions, always the same behavior since 10.8.13. Then tried and reverted back to 10.8.13, and everything works as expected. So it must be something JF / plugin related, since everything else is the same, and it works in 10.8.13 and not in 10.9. Don’t have a clue why it behaves like this in my case tbh (and I haven’t seen this posted anywhere else), but sadly it makes the plugin unusable for me.
