Great thanks! I'm out of town for a couple days but will try when I get home. If anyone else can try in the meantime, please post your results.

I'm afraid it's still not working for me. Perhaps I'm not accessing the "master" gimli is talking about. I tried OpenELEC 12707 (from here: https://www.ghcif.de/~t4c/raspberry/openelec/ ) and then I tried building/compiling it myself and wound up with a version that calls itself 12729. Unfortunately in both cases the video stops playing/freezes at the "skip" point in the .edl file. If I check the displayed time/progress bar it too is stopped, I think in previous versions the time would keep counting while the video was frozen. I would be happy to provide any more information or sample files if that would be of any help. Anyway, thanks for working on the problem!

gimli - I'm using the latest build 12736 from today but look like it's partially fixed (progress though which is good!). Yes it seems to be fixed for the test files I posted previously and some other recordings I have, but it seems to not work for others. See below for an example that still has the same pausing issue when it reaches the commercial in build 12736 from today.

File and EDL found in the same dropbox location as before: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/f03xceuz30a5ky2/QaGIB8Gue2
Commercial starts ~2m40s into the video and pauses once it's reached

Thoughts?

EDIT: Created new trac ticket #13787 to track this: http://trac.xbmc.org/ticket/13787

FYI... in following ticket #13787 above, it seems like this was fixed in a commit a couple days ago. I just tested it out with build 12778 and it seems to work great! Will continue testing but all seems good for now. Thanks again!

FYI... looks like this is now an issue again.

I just downloaded build r15241 of OpenELEC (latest Frodo 12.2) and it looks like .edl comskip support isn't working properly. It was working great a couple months ago, but now it's back to the old issue where playback pauses each time a commercial break is reached, vs. the expected behavior which is that the playback skips over the commercial and keeps playing back instead of pausing.

I created a trac ticket below to track it. Can you help?
