Intros not detected

I’ve been trying to test Skip intro feature since day 1, and I don’t understand why my PMS doesn’t run Analyze.
When I start it, the animation dissapears in seconds, seems to be not even running…

An example: https://streamable.com/3f82w3

Activity shows nothing, I’ve seen screenshots, where Activity showed the progress of detection of intros.
I’ve checked logs, and it shows, detection tried to find intros till 95% every time, and then it ended with “IntroDetector: Less than half of episodes have an intro. Clearing intros for [1070]”.
I don’t get it, I’ve started Analyze for 1 episode only…

Could anyone suggest any solution here?
PMS logs also attached.

No intros will be detected then.
You need to start Analyze for a Season
Intro detection works by comparing all episodes of a season, and then trying to find content which is identical among several episodes, and which is

  • within the first 10 minutes
  • which is longer than 30 seconds

If your season only has one episode, or if you are only analyzing one episode, no commonalities can be detected.

I’ve tried to run for full season, even run it for a full library for a night, nothing changed. :confused:
I’ve seen screenshots showing the task running:

It never showed up for me.

Do you have switched off the transcoder?
Is your system tmp folder very small in free capacity?

Should it be switched off?
I tried turning it off and then on. (typo)

Temporary folder should have enough space, but I continued the line of thought and ran a chmod 777 for the full plex home library. Now analyze seems to be running (though still nothing in Activity) will report later about results.

Transcoding must not be deactivated.

Same results. Did you check the logs, do they seem to be okay in your opinion?

The logs only show the analysis of one episode.

Have you verified that the show in question has

  • intros within the first 10 minutes of the episodes
  • which is longer than 30 seconds
  • has identical audio content during the intro

Shoot…“has identical audio content…” found the problem. Friends have hungarian dub, and hungarian translators have this habit, talking under the intro. Title of the episode, hungarian voice for the actors. Damn, I guess it won’t work for hungarian language tv shows…
