MarkerEditorForPlex VS PlexAutoSkip

Full GUI editor: https://github.com/danrahn/IntroEditorForPlex

If you really want them you could hackily add them manually, but they'll get wiped out and need to be restored any time you add another episode or reanalyze a season.

There is a decent third party workaround to this. Marker Editor for Plex.. It allows you to manually edit/change/add the intro and credit detector markers.

Marker editor for Plex, for manually editing intro and credit markers.

Note, I have tried IntroEditorForPlex, but it could never connect to the database.

There's also this editor (self-plug), which allows you to add/edit/remove markers. There are some downsides, like Plex wiping out customizations when a season/movie is reanalyzed, so you may occasionally have to manually restore them.

The latest beta release of the tool associated with the link above can make it a bit easier, though I haven't thoroughly tested mass-delete yet (hence why it's still a beta release).

From what I've seen, it mostly gets confused whenever there's text at the end of an episode, which is especially common in quiz/panel shows that often have a scoreboard near the end. I've been making unsupported manual edits for some items that I've noticed Plex is getting wrong, but it's definitely not a sustainable approach (and they get overwritten once an episode/season is reanalyzed).

If you don't have a Plex Pass, you could look into PlexAutoSkip's option to add your own custom markers. This won't show a 'skip' button, but will automatically skip that portion. The downside is that the script only works for local playback, and on clients that can "advertise as player"

There are ways to control playback of devices within the same local network using the Plex API (things like Plex Auto Skip use this), but it's not something built in to Plex.

I love the new Plex skip credits feature. This feature + PlexAutoSkip is a killer combo. But, sometimes the tool Plex uses to discover the credits, and sometimes the intro is off. How do you edit the markers for Intro and Credit sections?

PlexAutoSkip works very well.

It's not possible to auto-skip, though there have been signs that it's being worked on (a short-lived Android setting that seems to have been pulled: https://i.imgur.com/nIEubTs.png. That doesn't mean it will ever see the light of day though. The best you can do right now is to use Plex Auto Skip, though it has some limitations due to how Plex's playback controls work (has to be local, and the client has to advertise that it can be controlled by an external device).
