Is it possible to add an offset to the generated commercials list? As I'm working with WTV files I have to double convert them into temporary files before comskip can read them and once comskip has finished it's work the results are used to fast forward the original files which can differ in time fr...

thanks very much indeed, looks like I have a busy monday ahead

That works, thanks v much

thanks will give it a try - does it matter where in the ini file I put it?

Did you get the file OK? Can you recreate the fault?
Cheers

will do - uploading now into the "sheppy99 directory as a zip file and including the csv and all logs. It'll take about 4 hours and I'll leave it running when I go to bed.
Thanks for your help

No need for the --debugwindow switch then
Not sure it will make a big difference

already tried that - any other ideas?
file is h264 ts with mp2 sound which comskip decodes ok

When I try and optimise comskip using the CSV file it always detects the framerate as 25 despite the original being 50 and showing 50 in the original scan log. The scan log post CSV shows 25 and the resultant XML file has cut points of double what they should be. I'm guessing that comskip has no way...

Just tried it again - no video. Command line used: U:\Comskip>comskip --debugwindow "u:\temp_tv2\Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares USA_TV ONE_2010_08_12_21_30_00.csv" The top part of the logfile has this in it: ################################################################ Generated using Coms...

Not sure I understood them - will reread tomorrow and report back. The window appears when I do the initial scan and remains after but maybe I'm using the wrong keys but I can't step back and forward with the video behind. Then when I use the excel file to do the scan I have no video to step through...

Thanks. I've increased it to 6 so far and it looks better. I'm struggling to use the debug window. Is there a way of stepping through the video once it's scanned so I can see the individual frames and what is detected with the actual video in the background? I can see the logo line roughly following...

I've discovered that Videoredo4 can recode the audio from AAC to MP2 so that Comskip can read it. Currently playing with the ini file kindly provided by "wittsend" to make it more reliable on my system. So far I use DVRMSToolbox to convert everything from WTV (I use Media Center) to TS for...

Eric,
any news on this? Is there any way of specifying a different audio codec?
Cheers

I'm also trying to get something that works in NZ. Please let me know if you make any progress!
Cheers

Eric,
could you PM me the FTP details again?
Thanks
