2 new user questions - MediaMaan - 2024-04-11
Hi All.
I'm a new Jellyfin user, having been running Kodi (and the XBMC iteration before it) for my media library.
So far I am really liking Jellyfin. I have a few questions though, which as yet I have been unable to find the answers to.
1 - Is it possible to change the skip forward behaviour on the remote. Presently the timeline will jump by several seconds, but remain paused. I have to press the enter key to confirm the skip. I would like the skip to just jump forward without me needing to press "enter" on the remote. Is that possible?
2 - Autoplay next episode is great. It waits until the episode completes (after credits). Is there a way to offer a "Start next episode" 20 seconds before playback ends?
I expect these things are possible - I just can't find the options to enable them!

Are you still using Kodi as a client or one of the Jellyfin clients? Both of your questions vary depending on the client. For the TV clients I have, Android TV and Roku, I'm not aware of a way to change the behavior you described in #1. I'd have to double check when I get home, but I think for #2 you can only adjust how long it waits before starting the next episode.

Thanks for the reply.
No, not using Kodi / plugins for Jellyfin. I am trying to make the move away from Kodi altogether. My questions are based around native clients for Android TV (Shield / FireTV), and I'm experimenting with the WebOS client too.
Do you know where in the settings to find the delay before showing "Play next episode"? I just can't seem to find it!

There is no way, that I am aware of, to skip credits in 10.8.13. Only the intro skipper. There is a setting in Android TV to adjust the "Next episode" timer in Settings > Playback.
I don't have an LG TV so I can't speak about what WebOS can do.
Having said all that, there is a feature being worked on called "Media Segments" that will enable credit/outro skipping. It isn't going to make the cut for 10.9, but it will likely make it into 10.9.1 or some later release.

Thanks. I had tried the preroll one shown in your image, as I thought maybe that would extend it. I guessed the timer was how many seconds the timer runs prior to commencing the next video. I'll experiment with it some more.
Exciting to hear of the future developments. Thanks for the additional info!
