Comskip Support Forum

I decided to try the latest ComSkip and downloaded and placed in my NPVR Scripts folder along with the .ini file and the dictionary. I've recorded a couple of programs to test it and it appears to be doing absolutely nothing. The only thing in my recording file are two .ts files. I'm using HDRPrime and I have a PostProcessing.bat file in the same folder. I did double click on the .exe file and got a black text box on my screen briefly. I've been using ComSkip in its C folder but decided to put it where the text file said I should. Any ideas on what I need to do to get this working?

For about an hour there was a wrong 082 build on the server.
Can you check if the date/time you tested was before the date of the current executable?

I saw the first one had been replaced and downloaded the second one. I still getting nothing in my recorded folder but .ts files. This is what the processing log said yesterday (nothing but .ts files):

I recorded three more programs this morning and it didn't indicate it acted on them at all. My PostProcessing .bat file is:
@echo off
comskip %1

Please set
verbose=10
in comskip.ini
and mail me the generated .log file with the same name as the recording (same folder as the recording)
mailto:erik@comskip.org

I'm confused (you're surprised ). There is no processing file with the recordings, only the.ts file. There is a processing log in NPVR/Scripts and another in C:/Comskip, but neither indicate anything happening today, 8/15. ComSkip .ini file is set to verbose=10. Here is what's in the C/Comskip processing log (I have already sent you the one from NPVR/Scritps:

I am getting no edl file with the .ts file and I know I used to.

OK, seems your setup uses a different directory for the output files.

I have to recall build 0.81.082 because of a possible crash
Switch back to an earlier build.

I did switch back to the latest version on the site today (about two hours ago). That's the version I was using when I sent you the email with the log file.

Which version are you using now?

The August 13 81_081 version. Actually, it's now working for me since I moved the .exe and .ini back to C:\Comskip. Now the problem is to get it to work on simultaneous recordings. I assume that requires an adjustment to the PostProcessing batch file and I'm now trying to figure that out.
