0.93e (maybe even before that, but 0.93e is the only one I tried) cannot use existing logo file - dumps core. The following "patch" fixes it (for me at least):

0.93f has been released with changes for deprecated parameters in ffmpeg 2.1+.

cbxbiker61 · 2014-01-05, 05:03

0.93g fixes segfault when no video codec is found (damaged video file).

Has anyone got working comskip.ini settings that work for UK channels?

I have tried a few different settings but no success.

xxxnelly · 2014-01-17, 02:39

Does no one have example settings?

**Prof Yaffle** · 2014-01-17, 11:03

All I can tell you is that I've struggled with the same and not succeeded. C5 works reasonably well, but chokes when they do the shrinking-the-programme-into-a-window-to-tell-you-what's-on-next trick. ITVHD is all over the place because of their idents, C4 cuts too early as they fade the DOG out and back in again.

I end up comskipping as a rough cut, then editing the EDL file by hand until I'm happy - or, increasingly, using avidemux to find the cut points and writing the EDL from scratch.

It seems far too much effort for removing the adverts unless it is automated, I will just push the skip button Smile

What about any other countries, is this just a problem in the UK or do most have it?

jessh · 2014-01-23, 22:39

It seems that whatever I set detect_method to in comskip.ini it does not change what detection methods comskip says it is using and it always says that it is set to 43. Other settings do have an effect and it says that it is using the right ini file. Is this a known limitation or something wrong? So far I am finding that it finds very few commercials so would be nice to get it to find more.

Thanks,
Jess

make sure comskip.ini is in /etc/comskip/comskip.ini and modify that. you could run "strace" to verify which comskip.ini is found.

jessh · 2014-01-25, 02:13

Figured it out. This is what I had in my file:
;detect_method=43
detect_method=255

Apparently ; does not work to comment out lines and it was setting it from the first one and not the second. I would still call it a bug as there should be some way to comment out lines without having them pulled in.

Hi @all,

i'm struggeling to compile comskip ( via cross_compile ) for a synology ds213+.
The DS213+ is a QoriQ based System.

i'm using a ubuntu32bit 12.04 virtual machine as base.

Toolchain: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/fi...%202.6.32/
GPL Source: http://sourceforge.net/projects/dsgpl/fi...z/download

i unzipped (tar xvzf *** -C) the toolchain and the gpl source to /usr/local
i unzipped the newest comskip dir /home/user/Downloads/comskip-0.93g

in the comskip path i use the following build script:
build.sh

Code:
#env

CC=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-gcc

LD=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ld

RANLIB=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ranlib

CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/include -mcpu=8548 -mhard-float -mfloat-gprs=double"

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/lib"

./configure --host=powerpc-unknown-linux --target=powerpc-unknown-linux --build=i686-pc-linux --prefix=/usr/local

running this script throws the following error:
....
checking for AVCODEC... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libavcodec >= 53.42) were not met:

No package 'libavcodec' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables AVCODEC_CFLAGS and AVCODEC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

ok, wrong ffmpeg version. so i did:

Code:
wget http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-1.1.1.tar.bz2

tar xf ffmpeg-1.1.1.tar.bz2

cd ffmpeg-1.1.1

./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/ComSkipWork/ffmpeg-1.1.1-install

make -j8

make install

i assume i have to put the PKG_CONFIG_PATH for the ffmpeg install into my build script:

Code:
#env

CC=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-gcc

LD=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ld

RANLIB=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ranlib

CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/include -mcpu=8548 -mhard-float -mfloat-gprs=double"

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/lib"

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/var/tmp/ComSkipWork/ffmpeg-1.1.1-install/lib/pkgconfig ./configure --host=powerpc-unknown-linux --target=powerpc-unknown-linux --build=i686-pc-linux --prefix=/usr/local

this finishes without errors.

when i run "make" it throws an error in line 81: missing aclocal-1.14.
WARNING: 'aclocal-1.14' is missing on your system
....

ok. the i moved "/var/tmp/ComSkipWork/ffmpeg-1.1.1-install" to "/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnsupe/source/ffmpeg-1.1.1"
and put this flags into my build.sh:

Code:
AVCODEC_CFLAGS=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnsupe/source/ffmpeg-1.1.1/libavcodec/avcodec.h

AVCODEC_LIBS=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnsupe/source/ffmpeg-1.1.1/liabavcodec/libavcodec.a

and elmininated the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable.

now build.sh looks like this:

Code:
#env

CC=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-gcc

LD=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ld

RANLIB=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/bin/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe-ranlib

CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/include -mcpu=8548 -mhard-float -mfloat-gprs=double"

LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnuspe/lib"

AVCODEC_CFLAGS=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnsupe/source/ffmpeg-1.1.1/libavcodec/avcodec.h

AVCODEC_LIBS=/usr/local/powerpc-none-linux-gnsupe/source/ffmpeg-1.1.1/libavcodec/libavcodec.a

./configure --host=powerpc-unknown-linux --target=powerpc-unknown-linux --build=i686-pc-linux --prefix=/usr/local

..... now i'm back to this error:
....
checking for AVCODEC... no
configure: error: Package requirements (libavcodec >= 53.42) were not met:

No package 'libavcodec' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

can anyone help me?

could anyone help me please?

maybe there is somebody out there with a working build environment for the DS213+ that can compile a working binary of comskip for me?

thanx in advance.....

thanx for your help,
but the ds213+ is not based on arm cpu. It is a Freescale QorIQ P1022 (PowerPC)

So this is not usable for me.
