How to create a plugin/script easy??

Cazz · 2008-09-13, 22:28

Hi
I have read a little about "TV-Server Development - MediaPortal Wiki Documentation" but I dont have Visual Studio

I just need to access to DOS and to run mencoder like I want to.

I was thinking about add a mencoder line and add just filename (.ts) and a what name it going to save in.
Some very basic but does alot of job for me

So my question is how can I easy create a plugin/script without use any special program?

You might be able to just enable the comskip plugin in the tv-server configuration. Then setup a little batch file with your mencoder command line and you should be able to use {0} as the input file since it's being passed to comskip (or so the tv-server thinks). Then just set the batch file as the location of comskip.

That should theoretically work I would think. Of course, there may be a completely different and better way to do it, but this seems like the quickest/easiest.

Hi, thans for you fast replay
well yes I can guess that is the easy and quickest way but forgot to tell two things

1)
I can not have space in the filename so somewhere I have to change so when I recording something on the TV it change all the space to underline _

2)
I have to also change the bitrate for the each file because the movie if diffrent length

I have to see what I can do, I maybe can build a extern program that do this for me
