The most common will be: bw_plex watch

How it works:

Bw_plex listens for playing events using websocket. We download the first 10 minutes of that episode and the theme music from YouTube.

We then create a audio print from the theme song that we match against the audio of the 10 minutes of the episode. (There’s a backup method that uses audio silence in combination with black frames too).

We then check if this episode has a recap using subtitles and audio where we look for clues like last season, previously on (add you own words in the config)

Depending on your settings we will then allow playback until the theme start or just jump straight to intro end if we also should skip recaps.

Since this is a rather slow process we also start processing the next episode so next time you watch the same show we instantly seek the client to the end of the theme.
