I just had a quick peak at the code. Not really within my area of expertise - I'm just curious to know what needed to be changed on the server side.
If I've understood correctly, you need to be able to retrieve the frame rate of the stream/recording?
I guess I'm wondering how well this would work for VFR IPTV streams... but maybe I misunderstood?
Okay, thanks for the info.
VFR stands for variable frame rate. Some IPTV providers encode with VFR to reduce the bandwidth as much as possible. I guess maybe comskip would not be able to work with such recordings. As far as I know providers that use VFR are in the minority.
Thanks for your work on this.
If we add support for edl it would do that.Long term, do we need to be thinking about modifying comskip to export times in minutes/seconds rather than frames? Is it even possible to do this?

Yeah maybe we should add edl support.To me that sounds like a good reason to switch from .txt to .edl, but I don't really understand the issues.
Also, if we did switch to .edl, would we need to make the server/plugin changes to get the frame rate?
