Regarding EDLs

[dejunai]

Regarding EDLs,
this is a very personal request as it can only affect me

BUT, I run a Perl Script after the show completes recording, and after comskip
has finished that parses and comments the EDL file as such:

Code:

0    10.48    0
[00:00:00] -- [00:00:10]
594.34    745.18    0
[00:09:54] -- [00:12:25]
1082.11    1309.11    0
[00:18:02] -- [00:21:49]
1547.91    1683.65    0
[00:25:47] -- [00:28:03]
2409.21    2605.21    0
[00:40:09] -- [00:43:25]
2865.53    3001.33    0
[00:47:45] -- [00:50:01]
3396.89    3583    0
[00:56:36] -- [00:59:43]
3613.5    9999    0
[01:00:13] -- [02:46:39]

I can then use the EDL to manually finetune the actual edits.
Mencoder doesn't mind the comments....

Code:

Badly formatted EDL line [2], discarding.
Badly formatted EDL line [4], discarding.
Badly formatted EDL line [6], discarding.
Badly formatted EDL line [8], discarding.
Badly formatted EDL line [10], discarding.
Badly formatted EDL line [12], discarding.

It would be REAL REAL NICE, if GB-PVR did the same thing...
Cause right now, if the EDL exists and has any "Badly formatted EDL lines"
GB-PVR balks completely and silently refuses to play the show.

Anyway, Thanks for reading the request...

It usually would cope with comments, but through luck and the fact you still have three white space separated elements on your comment lines, it's trying to convert "[01:00:13]" into an number. If you added another space at the end and another word or something simliar, then it would have worked.

I've made a change for the next release to cope with this specific situation.
