cannot detect commercials in mplayer streams

hi all,

i am using mplayer in linux to dump dvb-t ts streams. while comskip worked a treat in windows using webscheduler, i can't get it to work with the streams mplayer creates, and they need to be saved with videoredo or projectx beforehand, which adds a lot of time to the process.

i have uploaded a small (under 5mb) ts stream. hope we can get it working, this really is a great program!

sample: http://www.sendspace.com/file/79xd23

ps sorry about using a file hosting service, i just don't have my own webspace

This is a very strange recording, I need to spend some time to analyze it because it is much different then normal recordings.

I found the problem and solved it.
Please try build 93. It will be uploaded in the next 30 minutes.

ok i just tried it with another stream from the same channel the sample is from. it works a treat, but it still fails on the other channels (including the HD channel of the sample)

should i upload some more samples? or maybe provide you with PIDs?

Yes please upload some more samples of recordings that fail.
20MByte per sample should be enough

And now build 94 is available, being able to read even more weird TS formats.
