MLB server and pitch skip

Someone mentioned that there is such a feature. Can someone explain what it does?

If you install mlbserver in a Docker environment (sorry I'm not an expert on this but I was about to follow instructions posted here somewhere) you can then access MLB using your MLB.tv credentials within your internal network.
It's pretty cool, toward the bottom of the selection screen, you can choose a Skip type.
So far, I've enjoyed using 'Skip Breaks' which skips all commercials, and visits to the mound, etc... The 'Skip Idle Time' skips to each pitch so you can watch each pitch successively, I use this the most. The 'Skip Pitches ' feature skips directly to the last pitch of an at bat, it's really useful if you're short on time but still want to enjoy the game without spoilers!

I wish all of these options could be imported and selected from within the Channels UI somehow, there's an app for Kodi available with all of this but I haven't been able to routinely get that working on my Android phone, Kodi seems to crash a lot. So I installed Tailscale and accessing the mlbserver streams from my Web browser. It's working pretty well!

thanks, that's really helpful. It's a shame that we can't simply use these features in the MLB app itself - it's a "game changer" (short on time)
