Globally: script-opts/chapterskip.conf > skip=opening;ending;more;categories

The default categories are:

  • prologue
  • opening
  • ending
  • preview

Additional categories can be defined with categories=my-new-category>Part [AB]/Ending 1; another-category>Part C in script-opts/chapterskip.conf

Category syntax

A + can also be used instead of >.

Index-based skips are possible by starting your category name with idx-. All patterns will be treated as integers. Chapter indexes start at 1.
