Is it possible to skip intros/credits? - Lock _ - 2025-04-16
Hi guys, I'm very new to Jellyfin (coming from a Plex Pass) and I'm still trying to understand how this platform works.
The info I find around are very fragmented (for example I read I had to use Docker to install it on my Synology NAS but I found a native installation file) and I need a bit of help.
I read that Jellyfin still don't have (or it shouldn't have) a function to skip intros and credits but yesterday, when i installed the client app on my WebOS TV (LG), I saw in the settings a lot op options to skip them (also other sort of thing, like summary of previous episodes), and I'm wondering how to make it work.
Thanks.

You need one of two things.
1) Files with properly named chapters.
2) Install the intro skipper plugin
#1 doesn't require any additional analysis. Chapters with accurate, descriptive names will trigger the skip button to appear depending on how you've configured each segment type. You can install the "Chapter segment provider" plugin to set custom chapter names for each segment type. Otherwise you'd need to do #2 and install the intro skipper plugin.

The intro skipper plugin will analyze your media, intros and outros only, and push the results to Jellyfin. The intro skipper plugin runs on a schedule and won't immediately analyze new content when it is scanned in.
