Can't seem to use local files for preroll #50

Using version 1.3.1.0

If I use the randomized online intro or choose an online intro it works. But I can't seem to use the local files. If I specify a directory or specify a file, I get an error like this:

2022-08-28 16:07:01.649 -04:00] [ERR] Error processing request: "Could not find file '/media/disk2/plexmedia/prerolls'". URL "GET" "/Users/63d99f7b469744c789b0c6a4d1538043/Items/ed03096aebcf8df45b5476d57806f085/Intros".

(Ignore the "plexmedia" part, just haven't gotten around to renaming the library.

Dupe of #28. Looks like you're trying to load in a folder, but the feature only currently works with one specific file, despite what the settings might say. In other words, you can load your own preroll, but it will have to be the same video every time. I've been waiting a while for this to be fixed too. Kinda have no use for this plugin without that feature. I hope someone with the right skills can add this back in soon

Thanks for the reply. I also tried specifying a direct filename and that didn't work for me either.

Seeing as so many people want pre-roll, I'm surprised this isn't just a standard option in jellyfin.

Ah, weird. You might want to check out @oddstr13's suggestions in #44. Check to make sure you have the right version enabled. (You want version 1.3.1.0 from dkanada's repository instead of one from oddstr13's repository.) Following those instructions made specific files start working for me, but directories still aren't supported.

Oh wait, just noticed you said you're already using v1.3.1.0. :/
