Requirements:

• DTb 1.2.0.8 or 1.1.0.6 (or newer)
  
• iTunes 7.x
• FFDshow (Stable Build)
  
• ATI AVIVO codecs.
  
• Convert With Ffmpeg packages (included with DTB 1.1.0.6/1.2.0.9 or newer)

You extract the zipped files/folders right into c:\program files\dvrmstoolbox. This will add the proper files to DTb. You'll then have new profiles called:

• Export to iPod using AVIVO - detect and cut commercials, convert with ffdshow and AVIVO, import into iTunes.
  
• Export to iPod using ffmpeg - detect and cut commercials, convert with ffmpeg, import into iTunes.
  
• Export to iPod using mencoder - cut and convert with mencoder, remux with ffmpeg, import into iTunes. (Set ShowAnalyzer to output .EDL and be sure to set the EDL path in the profile!)

Changelog: 

• 2007-10-22: Moved ffmpeg/mencoder conf to separate download, updated profiles, included ffA preset for AVIVO
  
• 2007-09-27: fixed export_to_ipod_mencoder profile to rename .mp4 to .tmp before muxing with ffmpeg
  
• 2007-09-18: updated for DTb 1.1.0.6/1.2.0.9
