Can this skip outros too? #24

Open Yankees4life opened 2 years ago

Yankees4life commented 2 years ago

Maybe I'm talking crazy here but I like to be a bit more hands off with my remote while binge-watching. Is there anyway to add a json so that I could not only skip intros but outros too?

Skipping outros should be fairly easy to add. By checking the end of videos instead of the beginning it should just work

Cool. Thanks in advance

Update on this: As mentioned, the detection of outros will probably be the easy part. The difficult part is making the code support more than just intros in a sensible way. Since the code has gotten kinda messy already, my plan for this is to rewrite most of it around the Kodi EDL format (https://kodi.wiki/view/Edit_decision_list). Additionally, the new code will be written with additional detection methods in mind such as audio fingerprinting.

There's no timeline for this rn

Sounds cool. I do wish that the jellyfin developers got around to supporting EDL files. Emby and Plex are passing them by in that category so if you rebuilt this into a tool that uses edl files to skip intro/outros(even commercials), that would be cool and certainly worth the wait 🤣
