Debugwindow not showing video during review

Post by jelwood »

I'm trying to tune Comskip for a few of my shows. I'm following the instructions in the tuning.htm file. When Comskip is scanning for commercials I see the video displayed in the debugwindow. However, after the scanning is complete I try to use the debug window to check the black frames, etc and the debugwindow won't show the video (everything is just black).

Any ideas?

What type of video file are you using?

I've tried it with both h.264 video in the .ts container, and MPEG-2 video in the MPG container. Is there a type of video that is suggested? If so, I could try converting the video and then tuning.

MPEG2 video in MPEG container (.ts or .mpg) should work.
H.264 can have problems.
Just tested to be sure and its still working.
