Request for an additional key in task config in MCEBuddy 2 

I'd like to be able to specify a custom comskip .ini, depending on the TV channel that the recording was taken from.

I could do this by using the regex feature of MCEBuddy2 to select a task profile depending on the name of the file. So I could select a profile depending on channel, assuming the channel name/code was in the filename.

Now if only there was an extra key in the profile, possibly labelled "ComskipParam", which is a string that gets added to the comskip command line, so startup parameters can be added (e.g. which comskip .ini file to use). The string value could contain any parameters as given here: www.kaashoek.com/files/manual.htm#_Toc128549929

Thanks!

 This is something I'd like as well, though it's down the priority list as it's not a 'wide use' function.  Not sure where it would fit in.

Re: Request for an additional key in task config in MCEBuddy 2 

I would think this would be at least a moderately used option if available.  I am struggling to get MCEBuddy working for me as I think it is the best solution I've seen, but it is not without issues.

I can see that getting commercial skip to work well is a challenge and this is a great way to allow different configurations for different channels and perhaps skip comskip altogether when it makes sense, such as PBS recordings.
