I'm having trouble understanding where GBPVR stops and Zprocess comes in. Is ZProcess just somthing refrenced through the related batch files, or is it more tightly integrated. Do I have to have .bat files at all?

What I want to do:
After recording send file to a queue - no processing should be done during or directly after the recording.

At some point later (scheduled time in the middle of the night):
1 - back up original file just in case there are problems with the process
2 - Comclean
3 - comskip
4 - transcode to lower resolution or bitrate
5 - possibly rename the file (haven't thought about format yet)
6 - delete original file after a week

I guess I see instructions on having "C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Third Party\ZProcess\ZProcess” “%~f1″ add2q" in postprocessing.bat - which adds a file to the queue for later processing, but how/when does the queue get processed? Do I have to schedule something with windows scheduling, or does this happen automagically somehow? Am I able to only allow processing to happen for say 6 hours - if its running longer kill the processes?

Indeed the docs or poor regarding the feature. And I don't remember the ins and outs of that feature off the top of my head. Let me look at it tonight... I should be able to help you out...

TestStrips, I've updated the wiki... But here's a brief rundown...

First setup ZProcess the way you want, with Transcode profile and check if you want retime, comskip or comclean temp files removed. Check the Backup folder settings on the Directories tab...

On the Queue tab, select the processes you want running on each file. The checks will be saved on this tab...

Then add that add2q line to the PostProcessing.bat

You'll have to create a one line batch file for the next part.. You have to create a windows schedule and run the batch file which calls

“C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\Third Party\ZProcess\ZProcess” queue

Then each file in the queu will be processed in turn...

Good luck

thanks, I'll be trying it out whenever I get the time to play again. Life is demanding :-) I can't wait to get my PVR fully up and running so I can just enjoy TV + not have to worry about the background stuff.
