Well, the errors will disappear without the -v option but libavcodec will have still the same problem, isn't it?
The logos are almost completely white and useless. Therefore I think that it is a serious error. Is this a memory issue?
The pretimer detection is not correct because it is a manual recording. You see this in the info file where the search timer information in the xml format is missing (see the tagesschau info file). I started the recording at 22:37 but the film started 2 minutes earlier. The info shows the time when I started the recording. The film started at 22:35 which is in the directory name and therefore I lost 2 minutes. The correct pretimer should have been - 2 minutes (minus two minutes) instead of + 2 minutes.

It seems to me that there is a discrepancy between search timer and manual recordings.

Thanks for your support!

Yes, the dir time 12:46 is misleading. I started this record via epg, the xml tags are missing and the epg offers as start time the start time of the film minus the default pretimer of 2 minutes: 19:10 - 2 min = 19:08
This is the dir time. The real start is about 19:45. The marks are correct.

The messages from libavcodec are errors. The enlargement of the logos doesn’t change the result. If I don't have the errors I get proper logos. My suspicion is that this error also handicaps markad to find logos.

I cannot reproduce it. I will come back if it happens again. Thanks

Thanks for the recording. For those recordings you dont need extracted logos. I added vertical border detection to the latest GIT.
Can you test it against this recording and report the results?

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try the latest git and let you know.

I tried the 1.4 on Star_Trek_-_Deep_Space_Nine/2012-09-16.20.13.12-0.rec and on a second Star Trek movie. Be aware that I had some errors during build. Maybe is has some effects on the ad detection.
Anyway, the results are the following:
1) the start marks are perfect. Great work!
2) one stop is ok (not perfect) for Star_Trek_-_Deep_Space_Nine/2012-09-16.20.13.12-0.rec. The stop of the second movie is completely off.
3) no advertisements are detected at all. I checked the length of the advertisements which are longer than 5 minutes.

Here are the marks for Star_Trek_-_Deep_Space_Nine/2012-09-16.20.13.12-0.rec, the movie which I uploaded:

marks:
0:01:57.04 detected start of vert. borders (2928)*
1:01:57.22 assuming stop (92946)

marks_0.1.3 (this are the marks with the 0.1.3 version):
0:00:00.01 aspectratio start with 4:3 (0)*
0:01:58.11 detected logo start (2960)*
1:11:54.14 stop of recording (107863)

Thanks, I'll do and let you know!

Perfect, well done! It works!
