Comskip setup
New forum member, but long time sagetv user and forum lurker.
I am doing a completely fresh setup of a sage server and clients. 6.6.2 It's been a while and although have read many posts here on comskip I am still a bit confused by what goes where. All of my recordings are stored on the sage server in a shared directory. Sage servers path to recordings is via UNC. The server is an XP Pro machine and is part of my home domain. I want to install comskip monitor on the server to create the comskip files for use when viewing by sage clients on two other PCs. Do I need to install JUST the comskip monitor v2.7 on the server or also comskip80_025 on the server? On the clients, what do I need to install besides importing the comskip playback.stvi? Do I also need to install comskip80_025 or does the playback use the comskip.exe on the server? Sorry for being dense. I did try to figure this out before posting. I read the setup on at http://www.geektonic.com/2008/02/ski...of-button.html but after doing it that way (it seemed to imply you don't need a separate comskip.exe on the client becuase it never said to install it) any time I tried to run a manual commercial detect from the client on a recording I got a failure message, which I assumed was because it could not find the comskip.exe I just need a nudge in the right direction. Thanks Walter |

Do not try to use any (or most) of those types of commands. Those are legacy commands left over from before the monitoring programs. (If you want to use those then yes, you would need to put comskip.exe in the same folder as sagetv.exe, I believe. Gerry
