DVRMSToolbox is a set of tools to perform actions on DVRMS files. Actions can be run against a single file (DVRMStoMPEG.exe) or against a directory (DVRMSToolbox.exe) using "Processing Conditions", or meta data based rules that you create. Both of these tools are command line applications so it's easy to create scheduled tasks that process your recorded tv while you sleep, or if you are a more visual person there is also a GUI that will run the applications.
One of the more useful applications of DVRMSToolbox is its automatic commercial skipping capability. Using this feature (by combining the FileWatcher and the CommercialSkip add-in), Media Center will automatically skip commercials while you are watching the show.
There is also a windows service (DVRMSFileWatcher), which can be run to watch the recorded tv folder and use the "Processing Conditions" to process new shows as they are recorded.
A set of "Profiles", or configured set of actions, is included in the installation package. These include: - Convert DVR-MS to MPEG - Convert DVR-MS to MPEG w/o commercials - Convert DVR-MS to WMA - Convert DVR-MS to WMV - Cut commercials out of a DVR-MS file and output DVR-MS - Cut commercials out of DVR-MS, output DVR-MS and DVR-MS with commercials - Cut out commercials, convert to WMV - Fix the MCE Slider (used to make the duration slider in MCE reflect the actual duration in edited files) - Remove commercial, output DVR-MS, move to Recorded TV - Do Nothing. |
