Does add chapters in expert settings suppose to put markers where the commercials were removed? I use media player classic and VLC neither shows markers where commercials were cut.

MCEBuddy will add chapters markers where the commercials are if you don’t cut the commercials, ie. enable the options Only detect ads and Embed chapters: [image] Question: If you’re already cutting the commercials why would you want the commercial chapter markers?

To see if the commercials were removed and how accurate comskip was. Sometimes I don’t want to sit through a whole show to check my comskip ini settings.

So if I’m understanding what you’re saying, you want to see the accuracy of the comskip ini settings and markers help you do that. Would I be correct in assuming that this would be a temporary activity, i.e. for tuning you comskip and that once it’s been tuned (for your series or channel etc), then …

Yes it would be temporary. I will try your tip. Thanks!

Checked only detect ads can’t find embed chapters is it under expert settings?

I’m using Beta 2.6.2 guess I need to use 2.6.1?

[Screenshot 2023-11-05 141230] Installed 2.6.1 still no embed chapters.

It’s under expert settings in older versions (called add chapters). If you’re running the latest 2.6.2 beta then it’s where the my last screen is showing in the conversion task settings as embed chapters

Not on mine both are the same as my screen shot above. No embed chapters just extract subtitles and closed cap. What version you using that you took that screen shot?

No Chapter Markers
