Comskip 0.77 has an integrated mpeg viewer

[erik]

The latest Comkip77.zip file that can be downloaded from http://mk.kaashoek.com/gbpvr/ has a comskip.exe with an integrated mpeg viewer.
When started with the -w switch a debugwindow will open.
During the processing progress will be shown in a graphical way.
Once finished the mpeg preview positions to frame 1.
Then it is possible using keyboard keys and the mouse to review the results by scanning through the mpeg file.
Its is possible to jump from black frame to black frame and from cutpoint to cutpoint.
This version has been tested on PAL and NTSC
Please read the included debugwindow.rtf for how-to-use.
Please read the included tuning.rtf on how to use the debugwindow for optimizing comskip.ini
Again, any feedback is welcome.

Recorded Shrek the other night and it nailed the commercials with the deault settings. I'll keep an eye out to see how it performs on other channels.

Hi erik,

just downloaded the latest revision and testing it. I've seen that in the ini-file the option for live-tv is back. So I directly switched it to "1", and gbpvr already uses the intermediate results of comskip. It seems to work great so far, thanks a lot!
One question: Does comskip write the output file (<recording>.txt) every second again? Wouldn't it be enough if it is rewritten if its content changes?

Good suggestion.
