Weird Question // Cutting Commercials

[rowle1jt]

My old DVR finally gave up the ghost, I think the board went south but it was a good excuse to get some much more power efficient hardware in place. My dilemma now is how to cut commercials from a bunch of movies that were recorded before I re-encode from TS over to MP4 files. I would like to have them cut and removed, so that when they are played in Plex there is no commercials at all. I have the most recent version of paid comskip, and I've tried videoredo but can't seem to figure it out. I've tried comclean but it doesn't seem to want to touch TS files or MP4's.

I'd like to do this in batch/automated mode so I don't have to manually pull commercials, etc. I've read that videoredo can use the comskip files, and it can call videoredo from the batch file. I just can't seem to figure it out and I'm hoping someone much smarter than myself has been through this before.

I'm fine running them through comskip again if needed. I'm even ok running them all through handbrake prior if needed.

Any help is appreciated so, thank you in advance!

Not weird just not really NextPVR Support more like general discussion. I have never used it but posts here suggest mcebuddy does this.

Hi, attached are sample scripts that I use to cut commercials using VideoReDo and then convert the output to H.264 in an MKV container. I keep these scripts in C:\scripts and update videoredo_h264mkv_manual_s.bat with the list of videos that I wish to process in unattended "batch" mode.
