Limit comskip to 1 process at a time

Post by K24A3 »

Is it possible to set an option to limit comskip to one process at any time?

I often have three comskips going at once and it freezes the PC for a minute or more. If I have one comskip process, no freezing. 2 processes may cause intermittent freezing. (Win 8.1)

I have a 500MB/sec Samsung SSD which may be the cause of the problem, too many ultra fast IO cycles :p
The PC is an Intel Series 7 (Ivy Bridge) Core i5 so I don't think it is a CPU load problem.

Perhaps Comskip can check the process names currently running, and wait for any extra processes to finish before continuing, set by an option such as "simultaneous_process_limit=1"



...by the way, manual.html has a spelling mistake. "Open Width" should be "Open With"

Does that happen with the latest build?
Comskiplauncher (google) can run comskip on multiple recordings with a settable maximum of simultaneous comskip invokations

Latest comskip build? I'll test it tonight.

If still no luck I'll use Comskip monitored
