Quote:When you get to teh commercial break time, if you are using EDL, you know at that point how much "real" time has passed, since you are playing the file. For example, at the 1222 commercial, the timeline is at 21:02 or so, but real time and EDL time are at 1222 (20:22). Could you not look at real time elapsed up to that point, and adjust the timeline based on that?As soon as you've skipped, that isnt going to work. So it would only help you at the start of the very first commercial break, which prompts a skip...
Of course, if one skipped ahead in the file, perhaps that information is lost.
Quote:Alternatively, could you use any of COmskip's information (say in the csv file) to "know" more about the file?Sorry, I wont be looking in external files for this stuff. I may come up with some other scheme that improves things though.
I have no real interest in having the timeline correct for timeline sake. It is only for COmskip, so perhaps someting that "fixes" the timeline based on Erik's output information?
