[QUOTE="sccrgoalie1, post: 1053155, member: 143879"] Please help test out live commercial skip detection for Media Portal 1. Live Commercial Skip detection uses .edl files, so we'll need to edit our comskip.ini file to make sure we get the right kind of files. This maintains legacy support of .txt commercial files as well. 1. Find your comskip.ini file and open it in notepad or similar. Edit the line output_edl=0 to output_edl=1 and update live_tv=0 to live_tv=1. 2. If you use Comskip launcher make sure you've set when to start as Recording Start 3. In C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\ rename MediaPortal.exe to MediaPortal.exe.old and paste the attached MediaPortal.exe file in that folder 4. In C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\ rename Core.dll to Core.dll.old and paste the attached Core.dll in that folder 5. If you use RSTP you'll need to stop the TVService and then go to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\ and rename the TVService.exe to TVService.exe.old and paste the attached TVService.exe in that folder. Restart the TVService 6. If you use RSTP you'll need to go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\plugins\Windows and rename TVPlugin.dll to TVPlugin.dll.old and paste the attached TVPlugin.dll in that folder. 7. You'll want to configure some buttons to use the new actions to give you better control of Commercial Skipping. This is done in the Media Portal Configuration a. ACTION_TOGGLE_AUTO_COMMERCIAL_SKIP - Allows you to toggle auto commercial skipping on and off during a show. This is necessary for the next action to work. b. ACTION_STEP_BACK_PREVIOUS_JUMP - Allows you to skip back to the place you jumped from, which is very useful for an errorneous detection. Make sure you toggle off auto commercial skip first otherwise you'll jump again right away. Let me know how it goes! [B]** EDIT **[/B] Updated the branch with current master. Updated installer based on 1.9 Pre Release can be downloaded here [B][URL='http://tinyurl.com/pqn3bf3']>> HERE <<[/URL][/B] [/QUOTE]
