comskip and converted mpeg to avi files

[LilY0da]

Found it!
The FPS value is returned borked when the video has been deinterlaced when converted to XviD!

I did it with 2 files, exact same command line, except I removed "-deinterlace" on one of the 2. Bingo, the deinterlaced one shows no commercial breaks, meaning the Imedia lib probably returns 0 FPS, and the one that is still interlaced has correct breaks.

Sub, might be worth checking on your side as well if it affects DivX files as well as XviD

For the time being, I will remove the -deinterlace option from the XviD transcoding command line

After reading this thread I've tried switching to the FFMpeg from this thread http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=11490&page=6 but I'm still having the same problem. I do not have a -deinterlace option in my transcoding command line. Any further suggestions as to how to resolve it?

Hi im new, But anyway I am having the same problem and tried to remove the deinterlace option and it still doesn't make comskip work, I was thinking if you wouldn't mind posting your XviD transcoding line in your config file. Thanks.

does it work with MPG files? I don't have the line with me here, but you can find it in a post from HumperDink in the forums. I think it's in a thread about "Xvid decoder" or something.
