Postprocessing suggestions

[SickBoy]

I've currently set up my postprocessing.bat file to automatically extract commercials using Comskip and VideoReDo. Now I'm looking to add some stuff to that batch file to autocompress the video, to save on HD space.

VirtualDub seems to have a good set of command line options (so it can be set to execute in a batch file) but my question would be the output file.

Say I started with:

<show name>.mpg

and ended up with

<show name>_orig.mpg

and

<show name>.avi

Would GBPVR play the file correctly if the extension is changed? Can GBPVR even handle playing DivX encoded AVI files at all?

It can play divx files. I should note though, the recording only knows about the original filename, so if you have the file renamed to .avi, GB-PVR will not show the recording in the recordings screen.

Hrm... any way around this? Like maybe a shortcut or symlink...

Or maybe a possible GB-PVR enhancement (to allow interchangeability of file extensions)?

There has been some enhancements for this in the next release.
