probs with dvrms toolbox and show analyser

[oz_johnno]

Greetings,
owing to low waf I had to remove show analyser and dvrms toolbox from my media center machine.

The problem was that show analyser seemed to either miss completely commercial breaks or skip in the middle of the program, leading to many mutterings under breath and sideways glances from my beloved.

Surely this shouldnt be happening, how do I go about tuning show analyser ??

Cheers

When you install showanalyzer you also get installed a program called Schoolhouse.

This is a GUI to showanalyzer and lets you fine tune commercial detection.

Record some shows (one or two for each channel you want to have skipping on) and then for each one do a couple of runs through Schoolhouse.

Fine tune the detection settings in there and save the profile.

You can allocate different profiles to different channels so if the detection scheme is good for channel 7 but crap for 10 then you can set them differently. You'll probably have to get on the showanalyzer forums at www.dragonglobal.org to figure out how to do that.
