And it seems that the extensiveness of my 10 second review of the editing features of MythTV has only been overshadowed by my seemingly complete inability to use the simple search features of google to find information about editing recordings in MythTV before asking stupid questions.
<br><br>Assumeably RTFM would come into play here as you would think "Creating a cutlist" would have jumped out at me in my glance through the MythTV WIKI, but alas I seem to have missed something in Second Grade reading class.
<br><br>I will now be asking my 5 year old to tutor me on the basics of reading and comprehension so I don't make the same mistakes again.<br><br>My sincere apologies for the utter waste of time the vast majority of this thread has been to all of you. :)
<br><br>Looks like I have pretty much all my answers for how to do what I want to do right within MythTV...who woulda thought...*mutter* *bonks self on head hard*.<br><br>--Douglas Wagner<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

<div>Ok, so I didn't read what you had typed previously as well as I thought I had. I just ran into creating my own cutpoints and editing my recordings through MythTV. Ok, so now i'm a really happy camper. :)<br><br>I DO have some questions however..
<br><br>Someone mentioned "Load your comercial cut points as starting points" how would I go about this? Is there a guide assisting me with some of the commands available to me for editing video through Myth TV?
<br><br>I noticed in the 10 second EXTENSIVE review I did of this feature (*grin*) that my options for cutting is cut from here to the beginning or cut from here to the end. That assists me with the basics of what I need, but what about if there are problems with commercials in the middle that arn't caught by the commercial flagging? I would be happy to mark them but can I set 2 points and say "cut between these two points"?
<br><br>Thanks for hanging with me on this potentially hopeless thread. :)<br></div><div><span class="sg"><br>--Douglas Wagner</span></div><div><span class="e" id="q_10dba33ca3265d60_2"><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

<br><br>Got .20 installed and working, mytharchive is running right now on a few files as a test. The fact that it it will create a menu and all that happy stuff is out of this world. But, all that said it's just NOT exactly what I need.
<br><br>The more I work with this the more that cutting the front and back off of the "middle" videos on the disk is becomming a requirement. <br><br>So, i'm going to re-pose the question as to what software people think would be a good way to go to manipulate these mpg streams? I'm happy to use mytharchive to string them together (seems to be the most painless way of doing it) and author the DVD itself, but what should I use to manipulate the files themselves?
<br><br>Also, how can I tell exactly what the cutlist for a particular video is and whether it has correctly commercial flagged the video or run over into the actual show in some way? I'd love to use mytharchive to do a large part of my work, but i'd like to be able to verify a cutlist before I re-code the entire video and then trash the old recordings after burning to DVD.
<br><br>Any information would be great, thanks guys.<br></div><div><span><br>--Douglas Wagner</span></div><div><span><br><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 9/15/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">
