Media segments

[Carters1]

Ever since Intro skipper was discontinued I have been looking for a replacement the following quote from the blog seems to indicate that they built it into the latest release 
I installed the plugin but could not find any information for how to use it 
Any help?

"Media Segments[url=https://jellyfin.org/posts/jellyfin-release-10.10.0/#media-segments][/url]
The Jellyfin server now supports the management of Media Segments. This means that we store some additional information for certain time-spans on a video that clients can then use to provide additional actions. For example, when there is a Media Segment of the type intro, a client may display a button to skip that particular segment. For 10.10, we only provide the general structure to store those Media Segments, and you will still require a plugin to create them. We have created one plugin that does this, based on the Chapter names of a movie or Episode, which you can find in the Plugin catalogue, and others may be implemented in the future. The Web interface fully supports skipping segments; other client support is pending."

Intro Skipper is not discontinued, it just have change ownership but is indeed very much active. You can access the new one here : https://github.com/intro-skipper/intro-skipper
And it supports media segments.

Media segments is not quite the same as intro skipper. It allows for a lot of functions similar to intro/outro skipping.

There is a plugin called "Chapter Segments Provider" that you need to install. Once you restart after installing the plugin, you also need to run the "Media Segment Scan" job in Dashboard > Scheduled Tasks. Once you've done that, go back to your home screen and click on your profile image in the top right and click "Playback". Scroll down and there will be several drop down menus to select how you want Jellyfin to behave for various segment types.

BUT, this requires that your content have properly labeled chapter names.

Having said all that, Intro Skipper is very much not dead.

The text can be changed?

BTW: it works pretty well!

You can use tools like ffmpeg or MKVToolnix to change chapter titles without re-encoding.  But it is a 100% manual process.  Not recommended. 

You would be able to script the process with ffmpeg, but that is assuming that every show is laid out the same.

Oh sorry, I meant to say the "skip intro" text
