Good morning:
When I stop and delete a recording, comskip doesn't stop running. This causes my PVR to never stay in standby. I'm also using DVRMSToolbox and MCE Standby Tool.
Is there a configuration setting I should be looking for to insure that comskip.exe is stopped when I kill a recording?

Re: Comskip doesn't stop
Which build are you using?
Re: Comskip doesn't stop
Good morning Erik:
Build 0.81.052 donators.
BTW, this will also happen with a bad recording. Yesterday when I tried to play a recorded episode of Nature, I got the weak signal message, however after a few seconds it started to play. Well, we realized that it was an episode that we had already watched, so I stopped it and attempted to deleted it. I couldn't delete it until I killed the comskip process tree and once again, my PVR stayed on all night trying to process this recording.

Re: Comskip doesn't stop
Can you test with the latest build:
Changes on 0.81.056
- Bug solved: On some recordings comskip would restart processing the file when reaching the end of the recording resulting in an endless loop.
Changes on 0.81.055
- Bug solved: When the recording has only one commercial at the start and always_keep_first_seconds is set comskip gets into an endless loop
Changes on 0.81.054
- Completely new approach for processing while recording. Not fully tested. Do report problems
- Bug solved: plist output wrong
- Completely new seeking algorithm in debug window
Changes on 0.81.053
- Repaired the preview function in the debugwindow.
- Multi thread decoding now also works fast on h.264 with video size changes
- Improved decoding of some types of audio
- Corrected another mistake in timeline decoding.
- Bug solved: The .mls file did not contain the last deleted block when it
