Here you can ask your questions on how to use Comskip for the detection of commercials. Also questions on how to remove commercials are welcome

Thanks, Erik for sending it to me again. I don't know where the original went. As I said, excellent reputation for service.

Well, I had no trouble finding the donator version. But it does not run at double speed for me - takes just as long as the regular version did. I see in the readme file that it is (or at least used to be) important to copy all the DLL's from the zip file to the correct directory, but there are no DLL's in the zip file (I got v81.056).

How can I get the double speed processing? Thank you,

Its just one exe now as people mixed with wrong versions of the dll files.

Did you try the high speed settings

No, that was my problem. It's going much faster now, about 4x. Thank you!

Comskip works very well for me, with one exception: it seems unable to detect the last show block and the preceding commercial block, when the final show block is short (say a minute or so), which happens very often on US shows. Can you recommend any setting to make this work a little better?

Thanks. I've tried that, but it does not help. What comskip does is it already keeps the last 10 or 12 minutes of my recordings, because it is unable to detect/remove the final commercial block. So telling it to keep the last 2 minutes has no effect.

What is the duration of the last commercial block?
Can you send me a log file generated with
verbose=10
At the end of the log file you will find a block list
Indicate which blocks should have been commercial and which blocks show.
