Wait a minute, you want to tell me that if you open the TV schedule in ptv/l it shows the length of TV Shows without commercials? I mean instead of showing a 30 minutes for an episode of The simpsons for example, it shows the real length? (21 minutes+-)?

If your media is encoding/scraped properly in XBMC, PTV/PTVL will use that data... So if you have a 21 minute episode, it will fill a 21 minute time slot.

The EPG runs in 30/180 minute increments... so since 21 - 30 = -9 the EPG will not show a major difference between a show running at 30mins and a show running 21mins but there is a rendered difference...

If you don't see a difference then your media is not properly encoded/scraped since how would PTV know your show with commercials runs 30mins? yet you have a file with a runtime of 21min? it needs to read that data from somewhere, right!! either from the files encoded data or xbmc's scraped database or nfo file...

I'm sorry that I spammed, i thoght that mabye that might be a slight difference between PTV and PTVL.
And yeah the thing is that PTV reads the data from the xbmc's scarped database, which means that every show is calculated with its commercials (supernatural = 60m, the simpsons = 30). My media is scrapped with the the TVDB.com, so I can I solve it? (I looked for other tv shows scrapers and found none that work... if there was an imdb scraper my problem would be solved because there all the shows length data is without commercials ...)

- what is futubox?

I think your confused... and I lack the time to explain things to you. I'm pretty sure you're not using commercial runtimes.
Answer these two questions for me:

1) In XBMC select an episode click (more info or episode info) what runtime does it show?
2) Play the same episode what total time does it show in the seekbar?
