comclean

Can't get Comclean to do anything....

all it does when I drag an mpeg on to it - it create the copy file....but doesn't do anything else

I've added the 'logging' line into the postprocessing.bat file as suggested - but can't find these files either!

Did you first run comskip on that mpeg file?
Did the generated .txt file list any commercials
Did you set the correct fps in comclean.bat?
Search the wiki for how to enable logging when running comclean.

to switch on logging....

any other ideas?

Does your mpeg file reside on a UNC path?
or on a mapped or local drive?

I just did this yesterday.

Download Comclean2 from here:
http://mk.kaashoek.com/comskip/files/

Then download Cuttermaran from here:
http://www.cuttermaran.de/

Then you have to fix the bat file in comclean2 by adding:

if exist "%~dpn1_clean" move "%~dpn1_clean" "%~dpn1_clean.m2v"

AFTER the Cuttermaran entry but before the mplex1 entry because the new version it doesn't add the ".m2v" extension.

Last, change/add "output_cuttermaran=1" in your comskip.ini.

You can then drag the mpg file to comskip.exe then when it's done, drag the same file to comclean2.bat and it will cut the file.

Hope that all makes sense, I just woke up.
