Help with version 81_031, not finding recordings
Posted: Wed Feb 15, 2012 11:23 pm
Hello,
Eric...Thanks for the great work on this program. I have been a longtime user from the Sage days and love it.
When I installed the latest version 2 days ago DVRMStoolbox was processing everything (as it has in the past) just fine until it got to the grammys. So I thought it weird that commercials were not skipping for new shows, and I went into my logs and it looks like DVRMStoolbox has been trying for over a day to process the Grammys. Interestingly enough, I went in and inspected the logs and all of a sudden it finished (it took over an hour on a quad core sandy bridge), and now it is moving on to the queue (14+ shows). However this is a possible bug because on the first dozen tries or so it found no commercials, then on this try it did. I can also send DVRMStoolbox logs, but it simply says no commercials found a number of times.
In the meantime I have the logfile if you are interested, and I will change the DVRMStoolbox so that this doesn't keep repeating in the future but this is the only time, ever I have seen this.
In general I use FIOS/HDHR Prime which has excellent quality, however finding commercials is about 75% which is way lower than the 95% or greater I was getting w/ Sage (also on TIme Warner then FIOS)--so I'm assuming FIOS or your algorithms have drifted from optimal settings over time for myself.
It would be good to know if you have any updated recommendations for the comskip.ini because mine is a few years old.
Thanks....
