I recently found this thread, and tried the latest build...WOW! A world of difference: quick seeks including commercial skip. Thanks!
I linked to this topic from another post over in the new PVR-MythTV forum:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...rcial+skip
The only change I made was to enable commercial skip using my mce ir remote. In case it helps others (or let me know if it is wrong
), here's what I did:
1. Added a new remote.xml file:
Code:
/storage/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml
containing the following:
Code:
<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<!-- support commercial skip via skip and replay buttons on remote -->
<skipplus>nextscene</skipplus>
<skipminus>previousscene</skipminus>
</remote>
</global>
</keymap>
2. Reboot
BTW, where would the best place be to submit a feature request (to allow me to turn-off automatic commercial skip)?
Sometimes commercials are not flagged correctly. From my experience using mvpmc, I've found it easier to allow the commercial to start, then manually skip to the next mark. This way I at least know if the commercial start was correct.
Again, Thanks so much for this build. I've been waiting for a replacement for my standard def mvpmc that was similarly efficient, and with this build, I'm convinced the RaspberryPi/XBMC combo can do the job.
