Comskip Output - edl file wanted with edlp content

I have manually tuned Comskip and it is detecting the New Zealand commercials from an MPG4 file. If I use mencoder to remove the commercials using the edlp renamed edl it works perfectly. But I want to run an automatic process like MCEBUDDY or kmttg and this won't recognise the edlp file name. I have to stop each time and rename the file edl.

The Readme refers to the output_edlp=1 addition, but not how to get the same information as and edl file.

This looks like an easy fix unless in my hours of going through the forums I have missed something. Is there an ini setting I can change?

This is a really great program, and has lots of nifty tuning tools. I hope I can get it automated.

Can't you run comskip and/or mencoder from a batch file that includes the renaming?

Hi Erik, yes, that works fine - but it needs a lot more work before it is as elegant as the GUI alternative. An ini option to change the content of the elp file would be a lot more universal. I wonder if this is just the nature of how my .TS file is saved, or whether it is the way the satellite program is sent to air?

Thanks for the feedback. :D
