PlexAutoSkip VS PlexIntroEditor

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).

That has turned into Plex Intro Editor, an app that allows you to add, edit, and delete intro markers for episodes in your library. You can view stats (X episodes have no markers, Y have 1, etc), add a marker to an episode that Plex couldn't detect, shift all markers for a season forward 2 seconds, add an extra marker if a show has multiple intros, and pretty much anything else you might want to do with an intro marker.

It also linked to an intro editor I made that makes it easier to add/edit/delete markers, though there is a fair bit of initial setup required to get it running.

It also includes a link to an in-progress PlexIntroEditor project I've been working on, which adds a nicer UI layer that allows you to manually edit markers: https://i.imgur.com/oYzKv0h.png. It definitely hasn't been heavily tested, but should be fine for just editing existing markers.

If you're really brave, I created this program that makes it a bit easier to modify (or even add/remove) markers, but it's not heavily tested, is not polished (i.e. very likely has bugs) because my real job got in the way, and while editing existing markers shouldn't cause issues, adding/deleting them is completely unsupported by Plex so has the potential to break if Plex changes how intro markers are stored.

If you're really brave, and willing to run a stranger's first ever Node project, I've been working on a tool for myself that makes editing/adding/deleting intro markers a bit easier, though as the project mentions, is far from polished/bug free, and is very much a work in progress.
