The new feature is currently supported within the iOS, Android, Roku, Fire TV, and Web clients (looks like the standalone Windows app in the Microsoft Store is left out as of right now). However, when it accomplishes this (depending on how much content you have) you should see the skip intro button from that point forward. It may not happen immediately as Plex has to go back and analyze all of your recorded/saved content looking for the unique audio “fingerprint” using a histogram of every episode. Thankfully, Plex listened to their subscribers (like usual) and added this neat feature to their platform, and is now ready for use.Īs long as you have the latest update applied to your Plex server, you’ll be able to enjoy the ability to skip intros within all of your DVR and other saved (TV) content. I know we have personally discussed it before in regards to Plex. This has been a highly requested feature in just about any platform that doesn’t support it yet.

It saves the user from having to watch the same intro over and over again and puts them right into the show. The ability to “skip the intro” of TV shows is quite a popular feature in major platforms like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. And now, they have risen that bar to another level by adding a well-needed feature.


It has become what could quite possibly be the best media server ever designed for consumers and enthusiasts, packed to the gills with features, and offers the best cross-platform performance we have ever seen. If you have any experience using Plex’s highly configurable media server solution, you are likely a fan.
