justinrh 174 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 When Emby records live TV, does it have the ability to: 1) remove commercials? 2) convert the file to a different format? What is the default video format that it records to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sross44 233 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 @justinrh I just started a pretty good sized post about this a few days ago. But the short version is not directly. You can set up a program like MCEBuddy to use ComSkip to delete the commercials. I believe it defaults to a .TS file extension. MCEBuddy can convert it to a lot of different extensions immediately after recording, so almost a seamless instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justinrh 174 Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 Thanks @sross44 . I use MCEBuddy already. I was hoping Emby had commercial skipping built-in, like Plex does. I guess if I have to convert, might as well strip the commercials at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sross44 233 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I hear you... I wish it did too! It’s one of the few things I prefer from Plex. But other than that, I absolutely love Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
