Description

Describe your suggested feature

As you know, there's a "skip opening" button in the player, although it doesn't appear for me with some providers.

Image The button would be very useful for skipping anime openings and endings, which generally last the same amount of time, but after a few minutes the button disappears and can no longer be used. Image

My suggestion would be that the button doesn't disappear, or at least that it can be used twice to see the scenes after the ending. It would also be nice if the video skip time could be customized

Research direction

No source files or tests are named. Start by locating the Android player code that renders the skip opening button and controls when it disappears, then trace how the skip duration is determined. Done means the requested button behavior and configurable skip time are implemented consistently across the affected providers.
