Mythcommflag Not Writing to Database

[jamesarbrown]

Hi,

I am trying to commflag some MP4 files that are recordings transcoded to MP4 utilising Handbrake universal preset (as we have roku devices). There is nothing wrong with the recordings, they exist, they play all ok.

I run this command

Code: Select all

 mythcommflag -f 1047_20140321225800.mp4 

Which from what I understand should put something in recordedseek.... but I have zero entries for chanid 1047

This is the output

Code: Select all

MythTV Commercial Flagger, flagging commercials for:

The last line is 0 = zero commercial breaks?
the en0 is the decoder running out of bytes, I think this is a common exit string?

But if I run

Code: Select all

 mythcommflag -f 1047_20140321225800.mp4 --skipdb

I get this

Code: Select all

Which is really odd as Mythcommflag now finds an advert, which does infact exist.

Any help appreciated.
