Hi guys,
Im running v1.2.1 and having trouble with my recorded TV not auto-skipping.
Comskip runs through fine (as far as i can tell) and the recorded file has chapters setup inside it before the start of each section of the programme following commercials. It manually skips to the end of the commercials as its "supposed" to do with a touch of the button but auto skip just doesnt work for any file i've recorded.

I use D:\Recorded TV for the recording folder and to house the comskip files once they have processed.
Files left behind by comskip are as such:

How I Met Your Mother - 7mate - 2011-11-08.edl
How I Met Your Mother - 7mate - 2011-11-08.log
How I Met Your Mother - 7mate - 2011-11-08.ts
How I Met Your Mother - 7mate - 2011-11-08.txt
How I Met Your Mother - 7mate - 2011-11-08.xml

I thought i had cracked it when i saw there was an option to enable the automatic skipping in the wiki page here:
General - MediaPortal Wiki
But realised the config options have changed since 1.2.0 and that automatic skip tickbox no longer appears

Am i missing something? Please help
Cheers

    Hooray it works!!!
    Man I wouldn't have figured that one out in a million years. Why the hell isn't the recorded tv a "skipping" folder? Isn't that where the vids go that actually need advert skipping? It should be documented a bit better too

    Oh well I'm up and running now and living the dream without ads, cheers guys
