so i tried it with XBMC. and the commercials are skipped mostly. but this results in a very weird behavior of XBMC at manually skipping forward or backward.
So to really cut out the commercials, for making it work with any player and for saving disk-space - there is an Windows app "Comclean". But i can't find a Linux alternative. Anyone having an idea?
You don't need an executable to strip the commercials. What you do need is a bash script that uses the .edl file to determine the ranges to strip (with for example ffmpeg). I haven't had a need to do this but you should be able to google it.
As far as Xbmc skipping and such, the later versions work the best. If you use edl_mode 3, the commercials will be initially skipped during playback, but if you skip backwards the commercials will be included in the rewind. This is a good thing in that if the comskip isn't perfect you can play the ranges that were skipped.

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables AVCODEC_CFLAGS
and AVCODEC_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
