When a user repeatedly skips intros in a single auto-play session in the same season/series, Skip Intro should become automatic for the remainder of the session. Once auto-skip is activated, the “skip intro” button changes to a “watch intro” button for the remainder of the session, allowing the user…

@twilsonco I get it - but once you move beyond a single global setting it starts getting complicated quickly and turns into a balancing act. More settings seem great until the interface is nothing but settings :grin: Keep the feedback coming though - now that it is released it isn’t beyond the realm…

No, I still mean a global setting, but it can be toggled from multiple places. Still global, but the user wouldn’t have to venture into settings to change it. No actual increase in granularity.

Apologies - I should have been a bit clearer in my wording in my previous response. Right now it is a single global setting for each client. What you are proposing is a single global setting at the account level which each client would then consume and apply for playback. While that isn’t a massivel…

Thanks for the clarification. I didn’t intend to imply an account level toggle. Still a global setting at the client level, but exposed in multiple places. I guess maybe there’s some technical details I’m missing here. Would changing a toggle on a media item’s page require that the associated setti…

There is nothing to forgive here! That clarification really helps. I had misunderstood the intent and am glad that I think I fully understand it now. I can bring this up internally for some review, the challenge would be to define or label it in a way that explicitly and easily defines it as the sam…

Great! I’m happy my input has been received. Thanks for entertaining my followup. I’ll let this be. Regards, Tim

Yes. But let’s also just add an option to ALWAYS skip intros and credits. I don’t want to have to manually skip them a few times just to make it learn that I want to skip them all. There were lots of other suggestions for permanent options to skip but they keep getting closed because of this one, bu…

This conversation’s basically closed, but I’ll point out that my suggested implementation would have allowed the user to set the number of skips necessary to initiate auto-skip. If set to 0, then it would always skip, just as you suggest. So that would have been possible via this feature.

I have been waiting for this autoskip feature for a really long time now. I am very happy and sad at the same time because I changed all my nviadia shields to apple tvs like half a year ago. When will this be available for apple tv? Please

You can… there’s just no “semi-persistent” mode or applying it for a single session as requested in this suggestion.
