Let him try.. I will just go in playing around with settings I shouldn't and hit the shutdown button again.

If you really don't wanna wait just compile it yourself from code. If you don't wanna install lots of apps on the family machine, download VirtualBox, install XP, install all the stuff required to compile and voila, an upto date SVN version of XBMC with only one extra app installed on the machine which you can uninstall easily when done.

Thanks,

My initial testing (2 shows recorded & commskipped by mythtv, then imported via mythicalLibrarian) with beta 3 indicate that there is still an issue with Dharma recognizing the commercial-skip files.

Anyone have a workaround or fix? Thanks,

Try add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc-svn. Dharma won't contain the fixes. It was too late to branch.

**outleradam** · 2010-10-16, 03:16

Just so you know I have not tested yet.

GregoryK · 2010-10-16, 04:23

Thanks Adam. I have the -svn repo as a source and it says I have the latest PPA. (That repo hasn't been posting nightly builds.)

if comm skip isn't going to be in Dharma at all, I will have to educate myself some on how to get the right branch installed without losing the stability required for WAF, if that is possible right now...

Ok, I just tested on r34731 and the issue is not fixed. Should I raise a ticket?

It was supposed to be fixed in r33959 according to trac http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/10234

You'll need to be clearer about what the problem is. That log file is doing exactly what it is supposed to.

**outleradam** · 2010-10-16, 16:26

There is no change in the problem. The comskip v1s are skipping earlier and earlier throughout the movie. It is a cumulative effect. I don't know what is going on with that block I posted, it is just skipping in the wrong place.

Harry Muscle · 2010-10-16, 17:08

Is it possible to provide approximate times where the skips should be happening for the above video you played? That would help us figure out a pattern of how much the skips are off by.

Thanks,
Harry

**outleradam** · (This post was last modified: 2010-10-16, 21:49 by outleradam.)

Is this enough? It would appear the XBMC runtime is off.

mythtv reports recording duration of 49 minutes 33 seconds. XBMC reports 59 minutes 57 seconds

Harry Muscle · 2010-10-16, 21:00

Just to clarify, what's the difference between "Reported time in XBMC" and "XBMC placed it at"? Is the first one reported according to the debug log and the second is where it was actually played in reality?

Thanks,
Harry

**outleradam** · 2010-10-16, 21:10

Reported time in XBMC = time on screen when commercial started and stopped.
XBMC placed it at = time when XBMC actually started the comskip and stopped the comskip.
mythtv reports recording duration of 49 minutes 33 seconds. XBMC reports 59 minutes 57 seconds

If I understand your explanation correctly, then the skipping is actually happening at the correct locations (same locations as what MythTV calculates them to be), but the time displayed is what is wrong. Is that the correct understanding?

Thanks,
Harry

**outleradam** · 2010-10-16, 21:32

That would be how it appears. The total duration is off by about 10 minutes. Because of this, the comskips are in the wrong places and get worse as the show goes on.
