Generate intro video markers when media is added not working

[jimbobjonesbob 7]

this still isn't working? latest Emby (docker) version 4.8.10.0

An episode was added earlier today, tested in emby browser, no skip intro. Ran the scheduled task, and skip intro is now there. But it's not there on its own 'when media is added' (which I have selected in my library settings).

Hi there @jimbobjonesboblet's look at a specific example:

Hey Luke
I just installed a fresh Emby docker latest version, with a Library set up to create markers when media is added.

What I did (and will be in the log):
• Added episodes 1 & 2 - Skip Intro appeared for both
• Added episode 3 separately - Skip Intro did not appear for E3
• Removed all episodes, then re-added all 3 together - Skip Intro appeared for all episodes, including E3

Why does E3 show Skip Intro when added with other episodes, but not when added individually?

I might add, I need the markers to be created when media is added so that they appear in Kodi.
If the markers are created later on via a scheduled task, they will not be reported to Kodi (as per quickmic).

In fact, same thing on a non-docker debian install, and same thing on a Windows installation.

Do you know if this was fixed?

HI, this should be improved in the 4.9 server release. Thanks.
