[mythtv-users] Auto generate a cutlist?

[John Drescher]

> A bit of scripting and mysql knowledge could do this.  Grab a list of shows
> from recorded (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recorded_table), searching by
> fields 'chanid' and 'title'. Create a cutlist for one of the recordings, and
> then lookup and duplicate the corresponding lines in recordedmarkup
> (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Recordedmarkup_table) onto the other shows.
>  Start adding lines into jobqueue
> (http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Jobqueue_table) and you can automatically spawn
> off transcode jobs to do the commercial clipping.  As always, run this on
> dummy recordings until you confirm it works.

How about mythcommflag

--setcutlist CUTLIST         Set a new cutlist.  CUTLIST is of the form:
                             #-#[,#-#]...  (ie, 1-100,1520-3012,4091-5094
--getcutlist


instead of all the direct db modifications.
