Comclean does not delete .txt file

[ZaHayNa]

Hello. I've finally been able to properly setup GBPVR to run comclean on my recorded shows. However, when I watch them from the 'Recordings' menu, the commercial skip zones are still in place. If I delete the .txt file associated with the file, the problem disappears.

But since my computer is hooked up to my tv and has no dedicated monitor, it makes the process a bit frustrating.

Is there any way I can have comclean delete the .txt file that comskip produces?

Thanks

Brodie

Hi there, welcome to the forum.

Wherever you are calling the Comclean.bat, for example the PostProcessing.bat, add this line right after it:

move "%~dpn1.txt" "%~dpn1_original.txt"

That will rename the txt file to the same as the original file left behind by ComClean.

Later when you are sure you're happy with how comskip has marked out your shows and comclean cut the shows, you can add a couple more lines that will delete the Original MPG and the Original txt file

del "%~dpn1_original.txt"
del "%~dpn1_original.mpg"

BTW, the %~dpn1 is sort of like using %1 in a batch file, but it strips out quotes and displays only portions of the passed parameter. In this case, "%~dpn1" gives you the drive, path, and filename prefix for %1

Hope this helps
