File Naming conflicting with Comclean4

[pBS]

try this...edit this line to look like this:
bbdmux "%~f1" 0xe0 "%~dpn1.m2v"
bbdmux "%~f1" 0xc0 "%~dpn1.mp2"

and see if the .m2v n .mp2 files are created correctly..
[delete that bad laworder dir first]
if they aren't working it may be bbdemux's prob.

i wish he'd switch over to ffmpeg and the new -genpts option..
[fixes the edit timeline probs]
i've seen it done, even tho it's harder to implement, it works...and faster..
[no demux step needed]

What's your bat file look like? Do you use comclean?

[pBS]

try this 'other' comcutter with gui..

if i used one, i'd use mencoder...much simpler and more reliable, and .edl files already output by comskip..there's a comclean version that uses mencoder..
check the website for comclean..

just a batch file...

Code:

"c:\program files\mplayer\mencoder" "%~dpn1.mpg" -edl "%~dpn1.edl" -oac copy -ovc copy -of mpeg -mpegopts format=dvd -o "%~dpn1_clean.mpg"

just config comskip to output .edl files and put that line in your post and a copy of mencoder where it looks for it..

I'm running ComCut right now...it worked on a short 5min clip I called "Law & Order" (even though it isnt). I'm running a full episode now. I tried the comclean with mencoder. It encoded very fast and the video it turned out was excellent....and had all the commercials still in it :-P. Not sure what I missed there...

[pBS]

rerun comskip on the file with .edl output you can run comskip moviename.txt and then when it's up, hit w to write out new files, if you've edited comskip.ini for the edl part..
there needs to be a "filename.edl" file in same dir as movie for it to work..

[bernlin2000]

Yeah I did forget .edl output :-)

Does mencoder break the timeline? It's giving me the same issues mpgtx did, where in windows media player it doesn't tell me how long the video is, and the video progress bar is stuck at the end of the bar...the cut video looks about the right size, but looks like the timeline got screwed.

[bernlin2000]

I've got it down now...I'm going to use ComCut. Since it's an .exe I don't have to worry about characters that DOS doesn't like, and it looks like it runs pretty good (albeit more slowly than mencoder, but I don't care about speed, just correct output!) Thanks for the help

Is this a hint to make comclean5?
