I ripped them and inserted in emby, one question, is possible in emby recognize the chapter for passing to the various song in one click? because looking for the wanted songs with fast forward becomes quite complex thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Hi. If you rip them with something like makemkv, it should preserve the chapters and then you will see them in Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution ebr 14959 Posted May 4, 2020 Solution Share Posted May 4, 2020 Hi. Make sure you have the option to create preview thumbnails selected and then they should show up right there on the detail screen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmack3000 84 Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 Is there an eta on when chapter skip will be available during playback? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 858 Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 What are you using to play back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwhodges 1538 Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I was thinking about that too. Having the thumbnails on the preview screen is find for starting, but being able to skip to the next while playing would be very handy, for instance, in a video which is a compilation of music videos.

ebr 14959 Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I use a Shield and Chrome on my mac Hi. They are available on the Shield during playback. There is a button on the OSD or you can press "up" during playback for quick access. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmack3000 84 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Ha, oh boy, thanks! I always pressed "down" and only had the "skip 30 seconds" button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maegibbons 1267 Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 The "Up" button is very useful. I wonder what SHOULD happen if you pressed up twice? Krs MARK A 'like' is always appreciated! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Ha, oh boy, thanks! I always pressed "down" and only had the "skip 30 seconds" button. There should be a number of buttons available on that overlay - including one to produce the chapters... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 858 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Does the Shield have an option to skip to the next chapter without pulling up the OSD? On my LG TV I can just hit the "channel up" button and it acts like the "next chapter" button on a DVD player. No fiddling with the OSD, just straight to the next chapter. Great for sports events that include a halftime show, or wrestling events/compilations that include matches I don't care to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmack3000 84 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Not on mine, but I only have the standard remote. It's possible the updated remote can do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 858 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Well that's a significant pain. I've been thinking about getting one but I use the chapter skip a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmack3000 84 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 The Shield itself is great. And knowing how to move through chapters now, it's really just 1 extra button to press. It would be nice to get a true chapter skip capability, but the time difference between the two is probably negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Well that's a significant pain. I've been thinking about getting one but I use the chapter skip a lot. What is a significant pain? Moving ahead one chapter is up-right-ok. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crusher11 858 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 That's three times as many buttons and requires bringing up the OSD unnecessarily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maegibbons 1267 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 @@ebr Whilst we are on this topic. Have you the appetite yet to consider an option to auto skip commercials based on chapter marks? A few of us are already comskipping our recordings and marking chapters as "Show" or "Commercial" it would be great if you could put in an option to play the "show" chapters continuously and skip the commercials/? Can you please consider this as an experimental feature please? I know you are busy but a few bells and whistles would be nice to improve functionality for your loyal Android TV subjects! krs Mark 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceboy 2504 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Or support for edl files which would get us to the same outcome and wouldn’t require re-encoding the recording 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maegibbons 1267 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Or support for edl files which would get us to the same outcome and wouldn’t require re-encoding the recordingIndeed. But i was just looking for an easier solution as the markers are already there as a starting point. The logic just needs to be in there to skip ahead. Once you have the skipping ahead functionality sorted, you can either skip based on chapter markers or EDL file as a later development.
