Hello to all.  
I don’t know if it is possible to do this, but I would like to suggest a function.  
would it be possible to assign a specific name to a file, or choose a file for TV series, to have it always run before each episode?  
I have TV series or anime with a single theme file, and I would like the theme song to start before each episode.  
I’m showing my son some anime from when I was little and he asks me to see the theme song, which among other things we learned because it is always re-proposed before the episode.  
Thanks for the attention

A list of some other features which the community would find very beneficial regarding pre-rolls, some were suggested by others but thought it would be good to get them all into one thread: Use a folder instead of having to list multiple pre-rolls. Separate folders to choose from for movies and tv shows would be ideal! [Mod-Edit: [duplicate](https://forums.plex.tv/t/pre-roll-folder-instead-of-typing-out-each-path/238085)] A tick opti…

Therefore closing this thread.
