Comskip Commercial data on Clients

DaRacerz · 2008-05-03, 21:28

Hi guys,

On my recordings I run comskip to obtain commercial data for skipping. On my Host + Client machine, this commercial data works fine, but on my other Client PC's, the commercial data is not realized (used). Is there anything I am missing or is this a known limitation/issue?

Thanks

There is a long runnig thread about this.

Comskip

Basically the Client can't see the index files created by COMSKIP. Try mapping the recorded tv folder as a video folder on the client and accessing the recorded tv that way. You may have to map the skip key as explained in the included thread.
