At First, sorry for my Bad englisch. Because of my problems by understanding the language, I have got big problems to understand the Guides here. So I try to lern comskip using by try and error.
I use Comskip since a vew weeks with For The Record and Mediaportal.
I testing it with German DVB-S TV. (Pro7, Sat 1, RTL, RTL2, Kabel1, Vox)
I am using the Version 0.79 und try some ini Files I have found in this Forum. But all this posts are from Year 2005 and older.
Can anybody post a actually great working comskip.ini for German Channels?
Thank you all and
Thank You Erik for this great Program.
Greetings

Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
Joker,
Mein deutsch ist nicht sehr guht aber ich verstehe es doch.
Best is to start with the default comskip.ini and use the latest Comskip build, such as 0.79.144 or 0.80.007
Then there is a problem with RTL7 showing logo during short parts of the commercial break.
This can be solved by setting/adding
logo_present_modifier=1

On the mediaportal forum you can find some people who are using Comskip in germany.
They also speak german

I´m still testing, because i have got one big problem.
Before every show are 5-7 minutes of the show bevore my show. I have set delete_show_before_or_after_current=1 but this won´t help.
My pre and postrecording settings are 10 Minutes. So I try to make this shorter.
It would be great, if anyone have an idee to make this ini perfekt for German TV and other Users!!!
I think 1 perfekt ini for all German Users is enough
If this was impossible, i try to make a perfekt ini for each channel and a Batch for using the right *.ini
Comskip is great, so I want to make this perfect usable for German-TV. But i still need feedbacks and help
Thanks

And the Original from your Zip-Files.
Now I test them all with each channel and many recordings und try the results.
Then i try to make a perfekt ini for the show und test it with other shows.
I Hope to find a good setting for all Shows but it cost a lot of time.
For Example: With this Ini i make a perfect Cut on Pro7 with TheSimpsons
But This Ini also cut the end of a show on Sat1, witch have 3 Minutes Show after the last Comercial.
Here the Original ini File from the 0.79 works much better.
Now i still try to find the setting witch is needet to make a perfekt cut on both of this shows.
I hope so I can understand the ini und explain wat is happening on each setting.
I have fun with this work !!!

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
I understand the fun, its like a complicated puzzle!
Let me know if you need more support

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
I need everytime more support.. 
actualy my big problem is the following.
Show before(3 Minutes) /Commercial/MyShow/Com/MyShow/Com/MyShow/Com/Nextshow
After Comskip it looks like this
Show before(3Minutes)/MyShow/Nextshow.
On every Ini i made i got this problem. And I want only MyShow.
I have set:
delete_show_after_last_commercial=1 ; set to 1 if you want to delete the last block if its a show and after a commercial
delete_show_before_or_after_current=1 ; set to 1 if you want to delete the previous and the next show in the recording, this can lead to the deletion of trailers of next show
delete_block_after_commercial=0 ;set to max size of block in seconds to be discarded, set to 0 to disable
remove_before=0 ; amount of seconds of show to be removed before ALL commercials
remove_after=0
Is there another setting to cut the first show?

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
The deleting of prev/next show parts is determined by these three settings
delete_show_after_last_commercial=0
delete_show_before_first_commercial=0
delete_show_before_or_after_current=0
The rule for delete_show_before_or_after_current is complex and is depending on a short (max 30 seconds) break between the two shows (so not a real commercial)
It could very well be that your recordings do not fit in this pattern.
But I will be glad to have a look. Can you do the following info (I like puzzles too
)
Set
output_framearray=1
output_data=1
and
verbose=10
in your comskip.ini
Run Comskip on the recording.
copy the generated .txt file to a file with the same name but with .ref as an extension.
Edit the .ref file such that it contains the start and stop frame numbers of the commercials as you would like them to be found. Use only one tab to separate the start and stop numbers, no spaces.
Zip the comskip.ini, the .csv, .data(if generated), .log and .ref files together and mail me the zip file so I can have a look.

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
ok. I have a good ini. without the problem of the first show.
I will try the Ini with these settings for my recordings and if the failed cutting of first show happens again, I mail you.
Thank You verry much for Your Help

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
Don't try to set them 0 as that will not work!!!!!!!!
Setting them all to 1 will remove most of the prev/next show.
If more is needed you need more tuning help.

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
Can you tell me a tool to find the Framenumber? Actualy I cut manual with MPEG2Schnitt and this will tell me only the Timeline to cut. Not the Frames.erik wrote:Edit the .ref file such that it contains the start and stop frame numbers of the commercials as you would like them to be found.
Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
What recordings do you use?
Exactly what Comskip version do you use?
ComskipGUI.exe build 0.79.144 can do frame number based preview of .mpg and .ts recordings
The donators version can do preview of .drv-ms

Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
I use ComskipGUI.exe build 0.79.144. But when I open the exe, it looks like a batchwindwow for a second. then it closed and nothing happend.
Re: Actually German Comskip.ini ?!?
Drag and drop the recording onto comskipGUI.exe and the window will open and stay open
Its not really a windows application but it does it job.
