Comskip question

[Niz]

I'm a fairly new user of this product (it's great!) and recently decided I'd have a crack at using comskip for commercial detection. However, it seems that it's not operating correctly for one reason or another. Perhaps I'm missing something blindingly obvious, but I can't see what that is.

I have copied the three comskip files (exe/ini/directory) into the GBPVR directory.
I have not made any changes to any of those files.
I have comskip being called from PostProcessing.bat rather than directly, but I don't think that makes any difference. My Postprocessing.bat file is pretty much a copy of the example that comes with the comskip download.
I can see from the log file (postprocessing.log) that PostProcessing.bat does get called, and if I look in the directory where my recordings are kept, I can see that some new files get created by (presumably) comskip.exe after it is called from PostProcessing.bat. The files have the same name as the .ts file in the directory, but have different suffixes (.log and .txt)
However, the .txt file that gets created is 0 bytes long. Shouldn't it have something inside it?

Also, the .log file has this at the bottom of it...
Video PID not found, available video PID's

Parsed 0 video frames and 0 audio frames of 25.00 fps

Does this seem normal?
Is this what I should expect?
Shouldn't there be some other output file/s?
I've attached an example of the files that get created by comskip and placed into the directory alongside the .ts file

Any advice/help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.

What is in your .ts file? Remember comskip only works with MPEG2, so if you're trying to run this against a FreeviewHD recording with H.264 video then you'll be out of luck.

Comskip now also supports MPEG Transport Stream input and DVR-MS input. Video must be MPEG2 up till 2000*1200 and audio must be MPEG2 audio or AC3.
Input file extensions should be .mpg, .ts or .dvr-ms. All in lowercase only. Cutpoint editing or reviewing the analysis is not possible with DVR-M

what happens if you drag and drop the ts file onto comskip

Hi
>>so if you're trying to run this against a FreeviewHD recording with H.264 video then you'll be out of luck

That's it. Looks like I'm out of luck.
Thanks for the prompt reply.

I should have read the wiki page more closely

so HD in nz
cant stream
playback is difficult
no comskip
cant transcode easily

what were the pluses again?

[Niz]

Not too bothered about comskip. Would have been nice if had worked I guess. I'm not too bothered about doing it the old fashioned way though. Not too bothered about transcoding or streaming.
Yes, the audio sync issue when timeshifting etc is a bit of a pain. Hoping that this will be fixed up over time.
The good thing is that we can easily install updated drivers/decoders etc if/when they get released, so eventually, hopefully, we'll wind up with something pretty nice.
