SYSTEM: Windows 8.1 and MCEBuddy
MCEBuddy 2.5 Beta 8 using WTV Profile
Comskip Donators version 0.8.09
Donator version extracted into
C:\Program Files\MCEBuddy2x new\comskip\comskip.exe- existing files were over-written
I have not touched the Comskip.ini file
Suddenly, for no known reason, my commercial skips fail when the .edl file is missing.

CHAPTER INFO ->

Any ideas?? Thanks in advance
ALSO: Version is showing up as FREE eventhough I downloaded from the Donator page

I'm not fully aquintanted with MCEbuddy but it might be possible that EDL files are the only way comskip can communicate with MCEbuddy.
Have you tried setting

Code: Select all

output_edl=1
in your comskip.ini? Maybe that might help.
