Intro Skipper (beta)

Plugin Banner

Analyzes the audio of television episodes to detect and skip over intros.

If you use the custom web interface on your server, you will be able to click a button to skip intros, like this:

Skip intro button

However, if you want to use an unmodified installation of Jellyfin 10.8.0 or use clients that do not use the web interface provided by the server, the plugin can be configured to automatically skip intros.

System requirements

Plugin versions v0.1.5 and newer require jellyfin-ffmpeg >= 5.0.1-5 to be installed. This is installed by default in the official Jellyfin 10.8.0 container and available as jellyfin-ffmpeg5 on Debian Linux based systems.

Plugin versions v0.1.0 and older require fpcalc to be installed.

Introduction requirements

Show introductions will only be detected if they are:

  • Located within the first 25% of an episode, or the first 10 minutes, whichever is smaller
  • At least 15 seconds long

Both of these requirements can be customized as needed.

Step 1: Optional: use the modified web interface

While this plugin is fully compatible with an unmodified version of Jellyfin 10.8.0, using a modified web interface allows you to click a button to skip intros. If you skip this step and do not use the modified web interface, you will have to enable the "Automatically skip intros" option in the plugin settings.

Instructions on how to switch web interface versions are located here.

Step 2: Install the plugin

  1. Add this plugin repository to your server: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ConfusedPolarBear/intro-skipper/master/manifest.json
  2. Install the Intro Skipper plugin from the General section
  3. Restart Jellyfin
  4. If you did not install the modified web interface, enable automatic skipping
    1. Go to Dashboard -> Plugins -> Intro Skipper
    2. Check "Automatically skip intros" and click Save
  5. Go to Dashboard -> Scheduled Tasks -> Analyze Episodes and click the play button
  6. After a season has completed analyzing, play some episodes from it and observe the results
    1. Status updates are logged before analyzing each season of a show
