Uninstall the plugin after that and restart the server, then just trigger the emby core scheduled task again after refreshing your metadata to clear the intro/outro marker But if the plug-in has placed markers in the chapters, then those would remain. I actually am not sure if the plug-in is placing actual Intro markers at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbjtech 4283 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 It wasn't the Plugin causing the issues - BBT is second perfect for all seasons .. It probably got confused as you stopped the scan half way though, so didn't write some of the markers .. ? Anyway - All good now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the Plugin and Core are working in harmony (as I use them to get the Button.. ) but stopping half way though any scan/process is going to throw a spanner into the works..

I actually had the chapter task running, but after I uninstalled the plug-in all the chapters went away so I figured the markers were stored in the plug-in db.

The Plugin is a bit of a hybrid currently - in order to get the 'button' we write exactly the same 'hidden' markers as the Core does - but the main data is written to a separate dB as Painkiller has correctly said - thus the plugin can view and edit the data independently. I believe the Core will soon be getting an editor - so Intro functionality will soon be on par with the Plugin. I'm not 100% sure what is happening with the End Credit detection yet in the Core - as currently, only the Plugin is providing this information to accurately bring up the 'Next Up' OSD - so if using the Core Introskip, for now, you will just see the normal 'Next Up' OSD pop up 30/40 seconds before the end of the episode as normal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBSki 1020 Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 It seems I'm still having challenges with some of the episodes so I guess I'll just have to wait awhile and see if it's still refreshing metadata. Then run the core intro detection again. If that doesn't work I'll install the plug-in along with the core and just use the markers detected by the plug-in.

The Core has limited the detect length to 10 minutes only, so if the Intro is around or beyond that - then currently the Core will not pick it up. Shows like Halo, Star Trek SNW etc are all affected as they all have some Intro's over the 10 minute threshold. The Plugin doesn't have these issues as it dynamically changes the length of the detect up to 20 mins on a 60+ min episode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been Big Bang Theory, but I think it's because the Metadata Refresh and rescan of Intros by core intro skip was still working. It would be really nice if there was a progress bar for Refresh Metadata as it seems to keep working even though the splash message is gone. I did watch a show last night (Kenan) that auto skipped perfectly so hopefully I'm good now, but I'll give it a few days and see how it goes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely don't install the plugin. That's the mistake I made. The only thing you might want to do is modify this line in system.xml and set it to true so you can see the scheduled task. <ShowIntroDetectionScheduledTask>true</ShowIntroDetectionScheduledTask> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched several shows now and Intro Skip appears to be working well. Now that I've got it working, I'm thinking of adding the plugin back in since it includes a scan for credits. BUT, I really don't need the credits for tv shows, I need the credits for Movies. Can the credit detect be applied to movies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credits for movies is a very different concept - as chromaprint cannot be used to even estimate where the credits start on a movie. There is some movement in this space however, with combinations of OCR and Black Frame Detection - but there are no ETA's - it's all proof of concept stuff atm. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any chance that there's work for skipping commercials? I suppose that's the same issue as end credits in movies though right? I did see a comskip plug-in thread, but that doesn't actually detect commercials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
