Sorry I forgot that was a private post. You probably don't need 60 seconds but that is the idea.

If you don't need the file right away post processing is slightly more efficient.

I'll try the delay as I proposed and see if it works. If not I'll rename the file to PostProcessing and see if that works. Either way, I'll post back here so that others may benefit. Cheers!

Follow up for other who may find benefit.

I run my pvrserver in a Proxmox VM on a very fast host. It looks like the ParallelProcessing.sh script was starting before the .ts file had written enough to be properly consumed, possibly due to write caching. Adding a sleep command in ParallelProcessing.sh did the trick:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 60
/usr/local/bin/comskip --ini=/etc/comskip.ini "$1" > /dev/null

Probably can get away with a smaller sleep value, but this worked for me. I also learned that the nextpvr logs help a lot, as do the files that get produced alongside the recordings.

At this time, I am working on tuning ComSkip (see here and here) to be more accurate.
