VideoEditor - Edit your recordings within MP! (1 Viewer)

[gemx]

rtv: could you give an example like:
cutpoints set:
1) xx:xx-xx:xx
2) xx:xx-xx:xx

and the resulting file contained the following portions:
...
?

Also keep in mind that the cutpoints you set in the VideoEditor are the portions of the movie TO KEEP and NOT to cut out.

 

[rtv]

Just like I did with mpg / dvr-ms a million times before I have:

1. used the slider to step forward approximately 7 minutes
2. set the start point
3. stepped forward via slider ~ 30 minutes until I could see the ending credits
4. set the end point
5. added that section to the task list
6. pushed the cut button
7. said yes to keep the original file

result: the first 7 minutes have been successfully cut (as they were before the start point) but the end point has been ignored -> the post recording (next movie after credits) is still in there.

In numbers:
- before: 7 min pre, 30 min content, 10 min post = 47 min total
- after: 30 min content, 10 min post = 37 min total
- desired: 30 min content = 30 min total

Should be clear now, huh?

Thanks for testing.
I think i made a mistake while calculating the "negative" cutlist.
The plugin sets the cutpoints as "portions to keep" and my classes need to get the cutpoints as "portions to cut out".
So maybe i made a mistake there.
I added some additional logging:

Log.Info("Cutpointslist:"); // the original cutpoints set in the plugin
...
Log.Info("\"negative\" cutpoints:") // the calculated cutpoints
...

Could you test again and check the log output and post it here ?

Thanks, that helped to find the bug
I used g_player.Duration although g_player has been released before so the duration was always 0.0.
Just commited the patch

Hi,
I recently have the strange problem, that I don't see files to edit nor any kind of possibility to browse the directory.
All I can see on the page is the navigations buttons....
same with all skins btw.

Do you guys have any hints?

cheers

What was the last action you did, before this came up, the first time?
Do you have any external Harddrives, USB-Sticks, Memory-Cards or similar plugged to your pc (temporary or permenantly)?

honestly, I don't know, because I did not use the videoeditor too much. I know that it worked in 0.2.3 stable...

No, not at all. I have a Card reader, though builtin in my Htpc-case.

Is there a config option maybe, that could cause this? I think somewhere I saw the option to "browse directory" or something like that?

Not really, but I will check this.

VideoEditor can now cut Ts-files, too!

Since the new TVEngine TVE3 uses the formats Mpeg and Ts for recordings, you can now cut every recording done with MediaPortal.
It doesn’t matter if you still use the default TV-Plugin TVE2 (that records in Dvr-ms)
or the new TVEngine TVE3 (that records in Mpeg or Ts).

Thanks to gemx who added this feature to VideoEditor.

Notice:
We recommend not to delete the original file before checking the result of the file that has been edited.
