I searched for any info on NEWA being able to use Comskip on playback but the results were four years old and inconclusive.
So,,, I ask,,, If Nextpvr can use comskip for playback of recordings is it possible for NEWA to do the same? I realize that NEWA uses VLC and it may be dependant on VLC reading and implementing the *.edl but the savings on file size (17% reduction) and time (manually FF) would be a great advantage.
Unless the folks at VLC do not the see any legal need to skip/remove a segment from a file?
re-Barr Wrote:For those of you that have such lovely experiences with your PCH can you tell me how you have the mvpmcx2 installed please? I have it installed on the npvr server and have just had a terrible time getting it to work right. the PCH has such low WAF that she won't use it anymore. I have wondered if the usb stick would make things any better.
Can you give an example of what you mean? Is the problem simply finding the program or loading mvpmcx2 or problems in use. The location on a share, an internal drive or USB won't make any major difference on actual use. On connecting you might have a problem if you don't have a fixe IP for the server, or if there is problem resolving your Windows share name, and you would resolve this by editing the name on the PC to use the IP instead of \\SERVER\mvpmc notation. Firewalls also get in the way, but that will impact playback too.
As part of the recent relaunch of RadioTimes.com, RadioTimes have handed over responsibility for the maintenance and support of the feed used by tv_grab_uk_rt to us here at MetaBroadcast. This switchover has already happened, so the feed is now being generated by us.
Chris from RadioTimes sent a message to the list that doesn't appear to have made it through, so I thought I'd send a followup to introduce ourselves and make sure everyone is aware of the changes.
The RadioTimes have posted a blog post about the changes here:

Atlas is an open source project and weâd love you to contribute, be it ideas or code. The group is also the best place to report any problems with the feed. We hope there wonât be any, but itâs good to have a way to let us know how youâre getting along.
I'm getting only 4 out of the 5 ATSC channels in my area.
The log files looks like it see's channel 27(the one I'm missing), but that's it.
I'v applied the 2.2.6 final patch, but no success.
Attached is the log file, any help would be much appreciated.
I thought I'd post a small update to MB4 since I am moving to a newer version with a database that will not be compatible with the current
* Show music timeline (skinnable)
* Navigate in music by clicking on the timeline with the mouse
* Navigate music +/- 30 seconds use FF/RW (PC only)

- random by album wouldn't work when album had an apostrophe
- lazy screen write could cause errors for fast selection
- possible Plex plugin Interfaces.dll compatibility issues.
I have been using gbpvr/npvr for years and now I am stuck at a fork in the road due to Comcast. Basically what I have concluded in order for me to be able to continue to record the shows of my choosing providing they aren't protected, I either need to invest in one of four devices. A Hauppauge HD-PVR, Colossus, 2650, or a Ceton card. Due to its ability of being able to record multiple tv shows I am leaning towards the Ceton card, but based off of what I have been reading the 2650 might be the "better" choice. Is it too soon to do a comparsion of the two or do they both pretty much provide the same result?
* Complete reworking of Timeslot view to fix issue with duplicate entries
* Fixed Guide details popup to prevent dimming of Description when touched
* Removed 'Record' button from Guide Details popup when the TV programme being viewed is past its end time
Not much new but I'm hoping I've finally cracked the Timeslot view having duplicate entries. Assuming that's fixed, I'll concentrate on some more significant additions over the next week or two.
I use /etc/mvpmc/ether-wake <MAC ADDRESS> in startmeup but my PC is determined not to wake.
Wondering if trying via my tomato based router for whuch I followed some script stuff many years ago, and works for remote waking, would work instead?
