Credit Detection Is Not Working When Analyzing

I have the Generate credits video markers set “as a scheduled task and when media is added.” However, it does not scan for credits during the scheduled task time (0:00 - 23:00), its only generating chapter thumbnails.

When manually analyzing the show or season, only the intros are being detected and not credits. How should I go on about this?

I would set to to the start in the nearest time in the future if you cannot wait. Like if the current time is 3:30 I would set to to 4:00, not change it to cover a time you are already in.

You can only manually analyze single episode or movie to kick off a manual credit detection.

I just tried doing single episode or movie, but I still see intro detection and no credit detection.

Can you grab the Plex Media info XML for one of them

I can’t send as .xml, so I copied and paste into txt.

it shows a credit marker here

<Marker final="1" id="118123" type="credits" startTimeOffset="2783734" endTimeOffset="2850816">
<Attributes id="118123" version="4"/>
</Marker>

startTimeOffset=“2783734” should be about the 46 minute mark

If i recall that show Invincible does not have regular intros and just a very short one randomly throughout depending on episode. To detect an intro it compares it to other episodes in a season to find it the common intro.

Intros also have some other cases where it will not detect them even if the same in every episode

  • Short intros of less than 20 seconds are ignored.
  • Intros ending more than halfway into an episode will not be detected.

What about this one?

That one has an intro which should be a little bit more than a minute in.

<Marker id="118123" type="intro" startTimeOffset="62023" endTimeOffset="149764">
<Attributes id="118123"/>
</Marker>

but not a credits marker

That looks like Anime and I know nothing about that particular show but I believe I was told often anime can be difficult to detect credits due to them being often stylized quite a bit. Thought it is possible the credits detector just failed for that one for some other reason. I will pass that along to team to look into SPY x FAMILY
