Tvheadend

The wiki mentions post recording scripts here and I thought I'd share my mods to those for others:
https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Tvheadend_post_recording_scripts

This script can be called from the DVR Post Processing command as "/usr/share/tvheadend/scripts/postprocessing.sh %f %b %e 'command'" where command is comskip or compact. It assumes recordings are in /video/Recordings/SeriesName and compact videos go to /video/videos.

1. variables
   TSVIDEO=$1 #Full path to recording /video/Recordings/%{ShowName}/%{FileName.ext}
   basename=$2 #Basename of recording FileName.ext
   error=$3 #error from tvheadend recorder "OK" if no error
   command=$4 #Type of Post Processing to do comskip or compact
   compactbase=$(echo "$basename" | sed "s/...$//") # Remove file ext (3 char)

1. exit if not ok
   if [ $error != "OK" ]; then
   echo " Not OK"
   exit 1
   fi

1. Determine Length of Pathname & Filename
   TS=${#TSVIDEO}
2. echo $TS

1. Determine Length of the Filename Only
   base=${#basename}
2. echo $base

1. Calcualte the difference between filename and full path length
   let TSPATHlen=$TS-$base
2. echo $TSPATHlen

1. Strip Filename down to Filepath
   TSPATH="${TSVIDEO:0:$TSPATHlen}"

1. Debug Outputs for testing script works
2. echo " Original Full File Name "
3. echo $TSVIDEO

1. echo " Stripped Down Path "
2. echo $TSPATH

1. Check if command is comskip and then issue comskip command
   if [ $command = "comskip" ]; then
   /usr/bin/comskip -t -d 13 $TSVIDEO $TSPATH
   exit 0
   fi

1. Check if command is compact and then issue proper ffmpeg command
   if [ $command = "compact" ]; then
   COMPACTVIDEO="/video/videos/$compactbase.mp4"
   /usr/bin/ffmpeg -i $TSVIDEO -vcodec h264 -acodec mp3 -crf 30 $COMPACTVIDEO
   exit 0
   fi

if [ $command = "" ]; then
/usr/bin/comskip -t -d 13 $TSVIDEO $TSPATH
exit 0
fi
