Adam:
Is there any way to get mythicalLibrarian to generate commercial-skip files that XBMC Dharma will properly execute? I have followed the related threads regarding the frame-rate issue in Dharma, and it doesn't look like a solution (either via MythTV or XBMC patches) is very probable in the near term.
I've been trying to think of workarounds, so that my wife & kids can use XBMC for playback without running into bad skipping.
Would transcoding the files as a user job in Myth, removing the commercials, before running mythicalLibrarian, be a work-around that makes sense?
If yes, would transcoding also help with my existing recordings, which have already been renamed and moved via mythicalLibrarian? (I suppose I might have to delete the commskip txt files from the /Episodes/[name] directories.)
Any thoughts are appreciated.
