PostProcessing [Filename] [Channel Number]

[Smoker]

Greetings

I am trying to run something against a recording via PostProcessing and I see the usage is

PostProcessing [Filename] [Channel Number]

Question I have is how do I determine the path ?
or does the [Filename] contain the path as well as the filename ?

[martint123]

ISTR 'filename' is the full path including name+ext

What you do is have a PostProcessing.bat that does stuff with the %1 and %2 parameters...

GB-PVR takes care of calling the batch file with the correct info....

You could have something like this (not perfect syntax)

rem if the channel is 13 then go to the end of file
if %2 == 13 then goto eof

rem all other channels...
comskip %1

the comskip package has a sample postprocessing.bat that suggests lots of stuff

Well what I ended up with is

@echo off
REM Usage: PostProcessing [Filename] [Channel Number]

c:
cd "c:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr"

mpg2srt.exe "%1" /d"%~d1%~p1"

Now I have to record a show and see if it works

[Smoker]

Well I tried it but nothing.

The name of the bat file is PostProcessing.bat

But I doubt that it is called cause I have a this line in it

echo Usage: PostProcessing [Filename] [Channel Number] >> c:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\logs\mpg2srt.log

and the log file does not get created.

It'll log a line in GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log to tell you if it has run PostProcessing.bat.

[Smoker]

Does PostProcessing.bat get called for manual recordings as well ?

[sub]

Yes, but remember it'll only be run if the recording runs to completion (ie, dont cancel it).

I just did a recording of a show that already started but let it complete.

The GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log is empty and dated over an hour ago.

The only log file updated was GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log with

2007-04-14 18:31:00.171 VERBOSE ConexantRecorder::StopRecording()
2007-04-14 18:31:00.343 VERBOSE ConexantRecorder:one()

You cant tell without the contents of this log. Try rebooting to see if it starts producing logs.
