My Script to Archive TV Shows (VideoRedo/Handbrake)

[superdodge]

I thought I would share the script I've written to archive my TV shows. This is very customized to how I want things to work, but I thought it might help some of you that are trying to do something similar. I execute this script using Sage Job Queue 3. My Ruleset and Client Configuration are shown after the script. Good Luck in making it your own!



The following tools are used in this script, I have no idea if other versions of these programs will behave correctly:

1. VideoRedo TV Suite 4 Build 595
2. HandBrakeCLI 0.9.4
3. Batch MetaData Tools 3.1 by Stuckless
4. Sage Job Queue v3.0.2.753 by slugger

The script is executed with the following syntax:
archive.bat <action> <complete file path>

The file path supplied should ALWAYS be to the original recording you are attempting to archive.

This script has five actions: QSF, TRIM, ENCODE, COPY2NAS and ARCHIVE

1. QSF - Runs a VideoRedo Quick Stream Fix on the Video File and replaces the original in the recording directory
2. TRIM - Uses VideoRedo to Trim the Commercials Identified in a user supplied .Vprj file
3. ENCODE - Encodes to 720p H.264
4. COPY2NAS - Copies the Encoded File to a Network Location and uses theTVdb to generate a properties file
5. ARCHIVE - Parses the properties file, renames the encoded file and places it in a subdirectory specific to the show title.

The script looks for the user created .Vprj file to move to certain folders in order to proceed with the next step. You can change this folder structure easily in the batch file by looking the variables section at the start of the script. Each line in the SJQ3 Ruleset must be modified as well if you change this structure. The folder structure I use is:

D:\Archive\1-Marked - This is where I place a .Vprj file to initiate the archival process
D:\Archive\2-QSFixed - The .Vprj file is moved here after an in-place Quick Stream Fix is performed.
D:\Archive\3-Trimmed - The .Vprj file and the trimmed video are placed here after VideoRedo removes the commercials marked.
D:\Archive\4-Encoded - The .Vprj file and the final video are placed here after HandBrake finishes encoding.
D:\Archive\5-Completed - The .Vprj file is placed here after the video is completely archived.

The script renames the file to ShowName-SXXEXX.mp4 and files it in a folder called ShowName on the network location where I keep my videos. Anyone that is handy with a batch scripting can change this if they prefer another format.


Please note that the script does NOT remove the original recording automatically. I prefer to go and play the imported video to ensure it works before I delete the original; however, I have never had the script fail to create a proper video. It is possible to use SJQ3 to automatically remove the original recording if you wish, but I will NOT provide you the ruleset or client configuration to do it.

That is a nice share and I am sure many people can use it

I use DVRMS toolbox myself but allot of people use SJQ.



ps love your scripting comments

[ohpleaseno]

This also would be perfect for scaling recordings down to the resolution of a ZuneHD.

Hey superdodge, thanks for the post, it'll definately jump start my own efforts.

Question for you:

Wondering what you're using for creating the video redo project file? I find video redo seems to do the work faster than comskip, but I'm more concerned with more accurate marking of commercials.

Any opinion?
