Post Processing file works, but not ParallelProcessing file

[glb45]

Hello,

I used the simple PostProcessing file (echo off, change to comskip location and then activate comskip) and it works fine. But according to the documentation that file is suppose to work as a ParallelProcessing, but it does not. Any ideas why that might be the case?

ParalleProcessing.bat is for use with NPVR

Hi Erik,

I used the same file with NPVR?

The Parallel version began to work but then exited prematurely.

Look at the example scripts distributed with NPVR
Postprocessing.bat is for processing after the recording is finished
Paralellelprocessing.bat is for processing during recording.
Make sure you have enabled livetv in comskip.ini
and have retries set to 4 or more

Thanks Erik,

Will give that a try.

Erik,

That worked! You might consider adding those hints to the documentation right after the example Parallel.Processing script?
Thanks so much for the help.

Erik,

Sorry to bother you again. What happens when you are Parallel Processing a show and start to watch the recording before the show is finished?
Will it mess up the processing and will the part already processed be missing the commercials?

If you have set
live_tv=1
comskip will continuously output preliminary commercial detection info that is ready to be used, quality may be (much) worse during recording, once the recording is finished comskip does its full magic and produces the regular best possible quality output.

So, no missing up
