Hi: I rarely record DVB-T2 HD h264 recordings in which I want to make
internal cuts, but it would be good to be able to do make them in a way
that doesn't introduce glitches in playback.
I find that Mythfrontend does a good job in playing uncut recordings
with cutlists, but uPnP then plays all the ads and skipping is painful.
My MythDVBcut script chops at videokeyframes; there may be glitches at
cuts but there's no long-term loss of quality or a/v sync. I've found
other scripts that work similarly and are more elegantly coded.
Frontend and uPnP glitches may differ in style and severity.
I've tried going via mkvmerge but at present see a/v sync drift and
haven't found an mkv/audio format that my tv plays acceptably via uPnP
So, before I waste yet more time, has anyone found (or developed) a
toolchain that is available and does this job properly?
Thanks,
John P
