I am new to MCEBuddy. After installing I found that only about 50% of movies had the Playon notification removed. I have read that you can set a “start cut” time that specifically cuts the amount of seconds from the beginning of a movie. What specifically has to be done to accomplish this? What would I put in the start cut box to trim 4 seconds? Is there a better way?

So for 4 seconds, would the correct number sequence be 4 or 04? Also, since I am not removing commercials, can I disable Comskip commercial detection to speed up the conversion?

04 and 4 are the same. If you’re using PlayOn commercial markers then Comskip is never run. Make sure you set it `Use ad markers` in Commercial removal and `Check chapter for Ad markers` in expert settings if you don’t want the Comskip fall back option otherwise it won’t process the ad markers.

Thanks for your help. One last question. If I am using MCEBuddy to only remove the play on notification, and these files are 720, what setting what do you suggest I use for quality. I am currently using the normal quality setting.
