Ask to skip for media segments does not show

[Noodlez1232]

When setting media segments up, and setting them to "ask to skip", the button to do so does not display.
Auto-skip does work, however. Just the button to ask to skip does not.

I just investigated this problem as well, and discovered that the media segments skip button hasn't been added to the TV UI yet, although the options are there in playback settings. There is a PR open: jellyfin/jellyfin-web#6295
In the meantime, you can enable server-side injected skip buttons in the Intro Skipper plugin settings, if that's what you're using.

The PR has been merged.
Does that mean with an updated version this should now work?
If so, could you push one to the webos store?

Yes, but there is still a bug with loss of focus (PR is open).
The webOS app uses webui from the server, so you will get the update with the server update.

I was redirected here and don't quite get it 😅 the button used to be displayed on my webOS TV.

To simplify the issue, Jellyfin has introduced a new media segments system, which is far superior to the old "insert a button into the HTML" method that intro skipper used to use - but, for whatever reason, Jellyfin didn't manage to complete this new system for TV clients in time for their first release. So, you need to go into intro skipper options, and enable the old button again, until the next Jellyfin release (or possibly the one after that) add the final bits needed to do it via the newer and better method.

You'll need to enable this option:

and then also this option below:

And then restart your server. One small downside is that you will probably end up with two overlapping buttons when you watch on a PC, for now.

Tried that, sadly did not work (yes I did restart)
As it seems that the fix will come with 10.10.4 I'll wait for that.

Oh, that's unfortunate - it fixed the problem for me. It might be worth checking your intro segments are actually stored correctly, as I had to run the scheduled task once after updating to Jellyfin 10.10 to fix some mysterious problem that was preventing the buttons from showing everywhere!
