Use the Media Segments API to support Skipping Intros

[roger6106]

Describe the feature you'd like

Jellyfin 10.10 added a Media Segments API that allows parts of a video to be marked as special (Intro, Credits, etc.).

When an intro is playing, a "Skip Intro" button should be displayed similar to the current "Next Episode" button at the end of an episode.

Additional context

Currently in 10.10 web, this button is hidden by default. However, in 10.10.1 this button will be displayed by default.

More information on the specific implementation in web is in this pull request. Some specifics:

• Only show for segments with duration of 3 seconds or more
• Auto-hide after 8 seconds
• Skipping does nothing if there is only 1 second left in the segment (just like the normal skip action)

Android TV has implemented this. See

• Implement media segments jellyfin-androidtv#4052
• Use "Ask to skip" by default for intros and outros jellyfin-androidtv#4111

Any plans to implement this? It would certainly be a good feature for the roku clients
