Hi Folks;

I'm trying to create a new profile that cuts out commercials using video redo and the .vprj file created by ComSkip. It works perfectly manually (ie. by clicking the .vprj file) so now I'd like to try an automate it using the toolbox.

The command I need to run is this;

cscript //nologo "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoReDoTVSuite4\vp.vbs" "%FILEIN%" "%FILEOUT%" /t10 /q /e

Is this possible? Can anyone help me get this step of the profile up and running?

If so, I'd gladly post up the finished result in the Profiles forum as I'm quite sure this would be a popular one :-)

OK, this seems to work using the dvrmsGUI;

C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe
"C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoReDoTVSuite4\vp.vbs" "C:\Temp\BetterHalf.VPrj" "C:\Temp\better.wtv" /t10 /q /e

Now the question is, how do I set variables for the source file and the destination?

 use "%ContextVar%" where ContextVar is the varible in context that you want added to the cmd line.

Am experiencing an issue when converting MKV to WTV.  Is it possible use VideoRedo to convert mkv to wtv (I confirmed this produces a smooth WTV file), but still use DVRMSToolbox to incorporate thetvdb.com XML metadata into the final .wtv?  Has anyone managed to do this?
