Help with Comskip for North American Settings?

[swalsh19]

I was wondering if someone could help me with Comskip settings. I have the comskip kinda working, but every now and again the comskip will miss a commericial or will cut too much and cut some of the show...

Or is there something better now available then Comskip?

Just tune it more. You may even need to set up various comskip.ini's depending on channel. Try this:

Code:

detect_method=47            ;1=black frame, 2=logo, 4=scene change, 8=fuzzy logic, 16=closed captions, 32=aspect
verbose=10                ;show a lot of extra info, level 5 is also OK, set to 0 to disable
max_brightness=60                  ;frame not black if any pixels checked are greater than this (scale 0 to 255)
test_brightness=40              ;frame not pure black if any pixels checked are greater than this, will check average brightness (scale 0 to 255)
max_avg_brightness=20            ;maximum average brightness for a dim frame to be considered black (scale 0 to 255) 0 means autosetting
max_commercialbreak=360         ;maximum length in seconds to consider a segment a commercial break
min_commercialbreak=1            ;minimum length in seconds to consider a segment a commercial break
max_commercial_size=121            ;maximum time in seconds for a single commercial or multiple commercials if no breaks in between
min_commercial_size=1           ;mimimum time in seconds for a single commercial
min_show_segment_length=150         ; any segment longer than this will be scored towards show.
non_uniformity=1000
max_volume=0                ; any frame with sound volume larger than this will not be regarded as black frame
ticker_tape=0                ; Amount of pixels from bottom to ignore in all processing
intelligent_brightness=1         ; Set to 1 to use a USA specific algorithm to tune some of the settings, not adviced outside the USA
logo_percentile=0.92            ; if more then this amount of logo is found then logo detection will be disabled
logo_threshold=0.67
aggressive_logo_rejection=1
connect_blocks_with_logo=0        ; set to 1 if you want successive blocks with logo on the transition to be regarded as connected, set to 0 to disable
cut_on_ar_change=1            ; set to 1 if you want to cut also on aspect ratio changes, set to 0 to disable
delete_show_after_last_commercial=0    ; delete the last block if its a show and after a commercial
delete_show_before_or_after_current=0    ; This can lead to the deletion of trailers of next show
shrink_logo=0                ; Reduce the duration of the logo with this amount of seconds
padding=0
delete_logo_file=1            ; set to 1 if you want comskip to tidy up after finishing
output_framearray=0            ; create a big excel file for detailed analysis, set to 0 to disable
output_videoredo=1
output_womble=0
output_cuttermaran=0
output_mpgtx=0
output_zoomplayer_chapter=0
output_zoomplayer_cutlist=0
output_edl=0
live_tv=0
