Comskip and mencoder

Post by wntrmte »

Hello,

I am using comskip79_28 and mencoder for commercial detection
and cutting.
I have a Fusion HDTV5 USB Gold
The comskip part appears to run ok, but the mencoder portion gives me the following errors. The original file plays fine. What do I do?

G:\My Videos>"G:\My Videos\mencoder.exe" "G:\My Videos\Star Trek- Enterprise.mp
" -edl "G:\My Videos\Star Trek- Enterprise.edl" -oac copy -ovc copy -of mpeg -o

I am not sure if mencoder can deal with AC3 audio?
Does the input file contain AC3?
Did you check if Mencoder can deal with AC3?
Could you upload a fragment of the stream to my server, if yes, I will PM you the upload details.

How do I check for AC3 content? I think the answer is yes, but I would probably need to check to make sure. How do I do this?
I can upload a fragment, but how to I only obtain/copy a fragment?

Looks like you're using Mpeg2 for audio, not AC3. I'd try a new version of mencoder. Try here:
