In the Nextpvr kodi pvr client plugin, is there a way to temporarily disable automatic commercial skip during playback. Sometimes, the commercial area is incorrectly marked at the end of the playback file, so the auto skip terminates playback and it is challenging to get into the final commercial area to view the skipped video. Or, if there is a way to get into the final commercial area without triggering the auto skip, that would work too. Thanks for your help.

PVR addons can't control the UI so this would be a general video playback question. The only thing is the pvr.nextpvr global setting to disable checks for comskip entirely
Ideally you could manually set the last commercial as a scene marker but pvr.nextpvr doesn't support them anyway. If this is a big enough issue for others I could give an option to force the last break as a scene marker and then you could manually move with the nexttrack key. For me it isn't an issue.
Maybe use the comskip.ini setting to not add breaks near the end so there will always be some show to skip to.
