If you could create a post of your own on the forum I can help.  The 
biggest problem is "--gencutlist" is actually recreating the cutlist, 
since you are already doing commercial detection as part of the 
recording profile and then fixing the edits, you are actually 
over-writing the work you did with a new auto-generated cutlist. I have 
a lot going on in my script such as sending a message to my 
GrowlForWindows instance that could be cut out of the process.
