Simplest way to export / archive WTV files?
Posted: Fri May 13, 2016 3:58 pm
My setup is a Windows 8.1 machine with WMC + dvrmstoolbox & comskip for commercial skip (OTA only). I run this on a low end Intel NUC with SSD, with recorded TV stored on a 2GB iSCSI volume on my NAS via Gigabit Ethernet. This works fine, except the recorded TV is only accessible to the HTPC, since iSCSI logical drives can't be shared without risking corruption. I realize I could share them with extenders, but I'm not interested in that approach.
I'm looking for the best solution to convert and export selected WTV files (sans commercials of course) to a shared folder on the NAS, where they will be accessible to all devices on the network. I tried doing this using the dvrmstoolbox gui, but got very mixed results - long running, crashing with exceptions, audio out of sync, etc. Since it has to run on the HTPC, I want the process to be as simple and lightweight as possible.
Should I replace dvrmstoolbox with something like MCEbuddy? Dirmon2? Others? Or should I let dvrmstoolbox/compskip continue and run another utility alongside for export?
Thanks for any advice!
