PostProcessing and Comskip

[flyingsubs]

Now that I'm able to find the right location of the scripts for PostProcessing, I'm able to execute the script but has anyone successfully written a script to execute comskip?

To execute Comskip it's ~/git/Comskip/comskip for me and then the file location and file.

Is there documentation on how to refer to the recording? I think for windows its %2. Also not sure if I'm going to run into a permissions issue.

I'm also wondering if there is a way to limit the amount of comskips running in case I have multiple files.

The same parameters are passed to scripts on Linux, but $1 etc instead of %1.

"filename" "channel-number" "recording-oid" "capture-source-oid" "title"

Thanks! Is this something that is common in linux?

I'm trying to learn more linux and figured moving my whole windows setup to a raspberry pi and see how it runs!

This example isn't doing comskip, but you can see an example of someone else's Postprocessing.sh on Linux here:

Thanks! I'll take a look

Ok, so that link definitely helped! I think I'm really close to getting it to work. Once I get it to work I can post it here so people can use it.

I think the next issue I'm running into is a permissions one, where the NPVR files are outputting with permissions that won't allow for the files to be modified in the directory. Is there a NPVR setting I could change or would it be possible for me to add a line into my PostProcessing.sh to change the directory permissions? Not sure what the best practice is. Thanks for you help!

The deb installer instructions explain permissions but I am starting to think people have stopped reading and searching this forum before posting. If NextPVR creates the ts file comskip will have the same folder permissions. If you changed the default folder you might have to run tests differently.

Thank you for pointing me in the right direction! I apologize, I have read that and I didn't make the connection about the folder vs the file and comskip. I've started learning linux and I'm starting to get the hang of somethings. Thank you for being patient.

I for one would appreciate it. I can't seem to find a how-to for comskip beyond the build process, and that assumes I know what I'm doing (I don't).

Here is mine, it is very straight forward.

nice -n 19 comskip --ini=/home/martin/Comskip/comskip.ini "$1" > /dev/null

- I run nice so the CPU doesn't get hogged
- My comskip points to my donator ini file
- Don't forget make install on comskip after the build to get it into the path
