This is a modification of the blankframe skipping code already in cvs (nice
one Chris). It looks for scene changes at the places it expects adverts to
end. There are two main settings it uses, SceneChangeAdLength which is the
minimum advert length, all adverts are assumed to be a multiple of this
(default 15 seconds) and SceneChangeMaxAd which specifies how far to look
ahead for a new advert (default 60 seconds). For England these settings
should be 10 and 40/60 respectively. As a precaution the last advert is
checked that it fades to black to stop a conincidental scenechange in the
program fouling it up.
You need to press adskip during the first scene of the advert which is
sometimes quite early on, I've only found one break so far which halts before
the program restarts but you can pick up again from the next advert.
have fun.-------------- next part --------------
