[QUOTE="doveman, post: 771311, member: 67412"] Whilst this might be nice, I wonder if it wouldn't be better if this were incorporated as a feature in the TV section, which would hopefully be able to preserve the recording details in the database. At the moment what I tend to do is have MCEbuddy monitor a separate folder and copy any TV recordings that I want to compress for archiving into that, but that's not ideal as I have to keep the original recording if I want to be able to access it from the TV Recordings section and see the details of the programme. Whilst I can live with having to skip any mid-programme adverts (and can't justify the time to manually edit them out), I have to remove anything preceeding the start of the programme before compressing it, with a separate program at the moment but it would be nice if MP let us set a startpoint for any programmes we want to compress, as part of any inbuilt compression feature.
