In an email to customers who run Plex servers at the large German hosting company Hetzner, Plex said that access will be blocked next month. It’s not clear if Hetzner is the only hosting company this applies to, but several customers confirmed that they received the same email.

Has anyone here on Lemmy got this notice? Self-hosting is still in the green, but with this precedent who knows what Plex could do later.

I’d like intro skipping. But none of these features are enough for me to switch from jellyfin. Luckily, sending the files to vlc is easy enough for offline playback.

There's always this plugin. Its a little annoying to get the skip button working but you can just set it to make a chapter marker so you can skip with that. Though be warned it will hog resources until its done scanning everything on the first run
