I want to be able to have a setting to automatically skip TV intros regardless of if I have watched any of the episodes. I’d like to be able to make this server-wide or show-wise, so that I can opt to skip intros of say House, Breaking Bad, but then no other series. Or the option to say “all shows”, so that every TV series has their intros skipped. I’d like this for both current series and new series as I add them.

Once auto-skip is activated, the “skip intro” button changes to a “watch intro” button for the remainder of the session, allowing the user to intuitively disable auto-skip for that session. Add an option like “Number of consecutive skipped intros when binging before intros skip automatically”, default to 2. If 0, all intros skip automa…
