I have been trying to get gbpvr to do the following things for a while now. Previously I didn't care about commercials or filenames, but now I want them working.
1. Transcode all mpegs recorded to mp4 format (gbpvr is fantastic at this by the way).
2. Rename the files outputted so that instead of Showname_date_time.mpeg it would read the showname - episode title.mp4.
3. Cut out commercials.
The problem is that post processing doesn't seem to want to do all 3 of these for every file. Some mpegs are cleaned and renamed, but aren't transcoded. Others are transcoded but not cleaned or renamed. Others are lucky enough to have all three applied to them. Here is my post processing batch file (unfortunately, I don't have a log file for comclean or renamerecording because I accidentally forgot to do >> as opposed to >, but when I actually get some data this way I will post it):
[HTML]
@echo off
Rem PostProcessing.bat
Rem This script will be run automatically by GBPVR when found after a recording is finished
Rem To enable it put this file inside your GBPVR default program directory (C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\)
Rem together with Comskip.exe, Comskip.ini and Comskip.dictionary
Rem The script is called with two parameters
Rem %1 is the fully qualified name of the recorded mpeg file.
Rem %2 is the channel number of the recording
echo Postprocessing.bat invoked on %1 recorded from channel %2 >>postprocessing.log
Rem The part below can be used to not run Comskip on certain channels, please modify for your conveniance.
Rem The channel numbers that should be skipped are the numbers between the double quotes ("").
Rem You can add "if" lines as much as you want
Rem To disable this behaviour use channel numbers outside the normal range, put a "rem" before the "if" or
delete the "if" lines
Rem list of channels to not run comskip on
if "%2" == "27" goto eof
if "%2" == "36" goto eof
Rem this trick also makes it possible to have dedicated comskip.ini file for certain channels.
if "%2" == "79" goto channel79
if "%2" == "72" goto channel72
if "%2" == "65" goto channel65
Rem use the default comskip.ini for all other channels
goto generic
:channel79
comskip --ini=channel79.ini %1
goto continue
:channel72
comskip --ini=channel72.ini %1
goto continue
:channel65
rem This is an example of how to reuse a previously learned logo to prevent Comskip from learning the wrong
logo
comskip --ini=channel65.ini --logo=channel65.logo.txt %1
goto continue
:generic
Rem The actual run of Comskip. Only one parameter, the name of the mpeg file to process.
Rem Comskip will read its settings from the Comskip.ini found in the same directory as Comskip.exe
Rem Both are supposed to be in the GBPVR default program directory. (C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\)
comskip %1
:continue
Rem Once the commercials have been identified you can run comclean to delete the commercials from the
recording.
Rem Do this only when you are not using the Skip function in the GBPVR viewer.
Rem To enable comclean remove the word "Rem" from the following line.
rem call comclean %1
call comclean %1 >> comclean.log
del "%~dpn1.log"
del "%~dpn1.txt"
del "%~dpn1.logo.txt"
del "%~dpn1_original.mpg"
RenameRecording -t %1 >> rename.log
:eof
