Request: Turn off Logo punish near start and end

Post by lobosrul »

I have comskip tuned almost perfectly if I turn on logo punish... except during a lot of shows the logo isnt shown during the opening and ending, and the opening credits/clip gets cut.

If I could simply tell comskip not to use logo punish in the first and last 2 minutes of a file that would probably solve the issue.

Also I have min_commercialbreak=75 set, yet blocks under a minute or still cut. What gives?

Interresting!

Could you mail me the .csv file and a .ref file with the correct commercial start and end frame numbers, then I will have a look for you.

You can set
punish_no_logo=0
in your comskip.ini file.
This will cause blocks with logo to be scored to show but does not punish blocks without logo.

I noticed that min_commercialbreak has no effect for me, if I set it at 60 I still get 0-40s marked as a commercial and 30 seconds at the end.

There is a specific setting to ignore short commercials at the start or the end
set
min_commercial_break_at_start_or_end=39
to the maximum size of commercials you would like to ignore.

The newest default ini file has set
disable_heuristics=255
implying the deletion of too short or too long commercials (Heuristics rule 6) is also disabled.
Try setting it to 223 or even to 0 to enable all heuristics
