Description

I get serious errors, when I try to extract the SAT.1-HD-logo. Here is the output:

Where are the 'serious errors'?

The H264-messages are from libavcodec, they will disapear when you omit the -v switch

Pretimer detection is ok cause your volume is not mounted with noatime option - time from directory is 22:35 (2012-09-07.22.35.5-0.rec) and time from info.txt (1347050220) is 22:37

Are you missing the extracted files in /tmp?

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!

I don't know if these messages from libavcodec are errors or just warnings...

No, try increase the size, e.g. --extractlogo=1,350,200 - but descrease the size afterwards to the smallest possible value...

I must investigate this further. Thanks for the hint!

I found no errors:

Second example, broadcast made with VDR-EPG Recording function:

The dir-time 12:46 is misleading. It is NOT the real start of the recording! Start of the recording was 13:09, start of the event was 12:56 - so markad finds the correct truncation from the directory atime (only available on volumes with noatime mount option).

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.

To be able to investigate this further i would need an recording which doesn't provide logos...

I found a good example. I get many of these errors:
[h264 @ 0x8267f50]number of reference frames exceeds max (probably corrupt input), discarding one
Last message repeated 1 times

I attached the obtained logos. I started the extraction with this command:
markad --extractlogo=1,430,130 - /media/reel/recordings/Star_Trek_-_Deep_Space_Nine/2012-09-16.20.13.12-0.rec
Generally speaking, markad doesn't work well on Tele 5 HD. Here is the record:

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?

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)
