1:30 skip steps for videos (1 Viewer)

[Crix1990]

Hey,

unfortunately it's not possible to create own, second based, skip steps.

I recognised, that al lot of TV series have a +/- 1:30 intro.
So the possibility of a 1:30 skip step would be great!

Thanks and regards,
Felix

Edit: enter 90 in Define skip steps manually

It says, that I can just define whole minute skips.
Thats why I'm asking

Some reason, just landed on this oldish post

Yes - you can enter value upto 59 sec skip BEFORE the 60 second value in "Define skip steps manually" but after the 60, enter any viable value [ a whole number and in correct ascending sequence - ie 30,60,90,180.....] and pop up error above the listing is "Enter whole minutes only!".

I tried replacing 60 second entry with 90 [in case it as 1st full minute based selection] but no joy - so Crix is correct, it's not an option [tested in 1.16 Final], values 1-60 are valid then N*60 only

Wiki page does not state this limitation.

And in the interests of just playing about - adding 90 the the skip steps in MediaPortal.xml results in same warning [although the value is not over written] and then ignored as step in playing video

So, unless I'm missing something totally obvious.

Just the reason why I ask: Most series intros are 1:30

Hi,

You can use up/down for immediate skipping.

Very true - setting constant & 90 gives you the 90 second skip - not as 'totally neat' manual skip steps being truly 'to the second' I would say, but as a fixed action [your use case Crix is start of many TV series {Big Bang Theory is about 20 so not all however so a frequent need] for a specific condition, it may really be a better solution - so much so, I'm going to config my prod MePo to do just that
