commercial skipping in WMC-11

Does anyone know how to get commercial skipping to work with the new windows 11 media center? In the past I used a program called dvrmstoolbox and comskip, but on another forum it said that this no longer works in windows 10 or 11. If anyone knows of how to get this feature working, please let me know the steps to set it up. Thanks, Gary

The FWLogs file shows ....

I think I have success on the DTBAddin for commercial skipping. I'll wait for a couple others to confirm but it looks to be working on both the machines I have configured.

1. Download the zip file containing the needed files and directory structure. It's hosted on my home internet connection so be gentle. https://diablo.homedns.org/TGB/W7DTBAddin_WIN10.zip
2. Extract the contents of the zip file.

3. In the W7DTBAddinSetupX64 directory copy
babgVant.DvrmsToolbox.Shared.dll,
MCEState.dll,
MceStateConsumer.dll,
MceStateInterfaces.dll, and
MemMapFile.dll
to the C:\Windows\ehome directory.

4. Copy the babgvant directory to c:\program files.
5. Open a command prompt as the administrator.
6. Run the following commands.

"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\InstallUtil.exe" "C:\Program Files\babgvant\DTBAddin\MCEState.dll"
"C:\Windows\ehome\RegisterMceApp.exe" /allusers "C:\Program Files\babgvant\DTBAddin\Registration.xml"
Open media center and verify that you don't receive any DTBAddin related error messages.
Mine is now working on both the machines in which I have done the above. Maybe we can limp this dying horse a little further down the road.

any help is appreciated... thanks, Gary
