An importable module for SageTV Default STV version 5 and 6 that adds support for reading the edl or txt files generated by comskip or showanalyzer and skipping commercial breaks during playback
This module DOES NOT run comskip or showanalyzer itself: you will need to do that manually, or use a tool such as DirMon or Comskip Monitor
As it is an evolution of previous versions of Comskip Playback, any feature available previously, but no longer working could be considered a bug.
The current version is Comskip Playback 1.5.4 (30 August 2008)
See Forums Thread for more info
Note:
The df_sageutils.jar file included requires Java 1.6. A version of df_sageutils.jar that will work with Java 1.4 - 1.6 can be downloaded from here.
