Debug window won't display video for DVR-MS files

Post by caiparinha »

The subject says it all. I'm just wondering if there is a compatibility issue with the debug window displaying DVR-MS files. I can see the video playing in the debug window as comskip is running, but as soon as comskip is finished, all of the colored graphs and top bar display but the video picture is blank. The debug window is also blank when processing a csv or txt. I haven't found anything on the forums that says that the debug window is not compatible with dvr-ms files.

I saw the recent post on the same issue but that was specifically concerning h.264. This is with US OTA so should be mpeg2, recorded in 7mc from hdhomerun, dvr-ms converted from wtv using the microsoft wtvconverter.exe.

I have the exact same issue.
I use a Ceton Infinitv 4 card though.
DVR-MS converted from WTV, should be mpeg2.

Only the donator version can move through video in the debugwindow from dvr-ms files
For the non donator version you first need to convert the dvr-ms file to .mpg
