NAME

       MarkAd - marks advertisements in VDR recordings.

SYNOPSIS

       markad [options]

DESCRIPTION

       MarkAd marks advertisements in VDR recordings.

OPTIONS

       Usage: markad [options] cmd <recording>

       -b , --background
               markad runs as a background-process
               this will be automatically set if called with "after"

       -i , --ignoreinfo=<info>
               ignores hints from info(.vdr) file
               <info> 4 = ignore timer info

       -l , --logocachedir
               directory where predefined logos were stored, default /var/lib/markad
               notice:  channels sometimes change their logo, you have to to keep the cache up to
              date
               wrong logos will result in bad mark results

       --autologo=<option>
               if there is no suitable logo file found, markad will try to find the logo from the
              recording and store the result in the recording directory
               <option>   0 = disable, only use logos from logo cache directory
                          1 = deprecated, do not use
                          2  =  enable,  if there is no suitable logo in the logo cache directory
              (default)
                              find logo from recording and store it in the recording directory
                              use it only on systems with >= 1 GB main memory

       --fulldecode
               this option is only available on command line usage
               decode all video frame types
               use it only on powerful CPUs, it will double overall run time

       --fullencode=<streams>
               this option is only available for command line usage
               full reencode video generated by --cut
               use it only on powerful CPUs, it will double overall run time
               <streams>  all  = keep all video and audio streams of the recording
                          best = only encode best video and best audio stream, drop rest

       -p , --priority=<priority>
               software priority of markad when running in background
               <priority> from -20...19, default 19

       -r , --ioprio=<class>[,<level>]
               io priority of markad when running in background
               <class> 1 = realtime, <level> from 0..7, default 4
                           2 = besteffort, <level> from 0..7, default 4
                           3 = idle (default)
               make sure your I/O scheduler supports scheduling priorities and classes (e.g.  BFQ
              or CFQ)

       -v , --verbose
               increments loglevel by one, can be given multiple times

       -B , --backupmarks
               make a backup of existing marks

       -I , --saveinfo
               correct information in info file

       -L , --extractlogo=<direction>[,width[,height]]
               extracts logo to /tmp as pgm files (must be renamed)
               <direction>  0 = top left,    1 = top right
                                2 = bottom left, 3 = bottom right

       -O , --OSD
               markad sends an OSD-Message for start and end

       -R , --log2rec
               write logfiles into recording directory

       -T , --threads=<number>
               number of threads used for decoding, max. 16
               (default is the number of cpus)

       -V , --version
               print version-info and exit

       --loglevel=<level>
               sets loglevel to the specified value
               <level> 1=error 2=info 3=debug 4=trace

       --markfile=<markfilename>
               set a different markfile-name

       --nopid
               disables creation of markad.pid file in recdir

        --online[=1|2] ( default is 1 )
               start markad immediately when called with "before" as cmd
               if online is 1, markad starts online for live-recordings
               only, online=2 starts markad online for every recording
               live-recordings are identified by having a '@' in the
               filename so the entry 'Mark instant recording' in the menu
               Setup - Recording of the vdr should be set to 'yes'

       --pass1only
               process only first pass, setting of marks

       --pass2only
               process only second pass, fine adjustment of marks

       --svdrphost=<ip/hostname> ( default is 127.0.0.1 )
               ip/hostname of a remote VDR for OSD messages

       --astopoffs=<value>  ( default is 0 )
               assumed stop offset in seconds range from 0 to 240

       --posttimer=<value> ( default is 600 )
               additional recording time in seconds after epg timer end
               range from 0 to 1200

       --vps
               use VPS events from markad.vps to optimize start and stop marks

       --cut
               cut video based on marks and store it in the recording directory
               there  are  no splits of the target file, make sure your filesystem can handle big
              files

       --ac3reencode
               re-encode AC3 stream to fix low audio level of cutted video on same devices
               requires --cut
               use it only if you really need it, it is very CPU consuming

       --svdrpport=<port>  ( default is 6419 )
               port of a remote VDR for OSD messages

               cmd: one of
               -                         dummy-parameter if called directly
               nice                      runs markad directly and with nice(19)
               after                     markad started by vdr after the recording is complete
               before                    markad started by vdr before the recording is  complete,
              only valid together with --online
               edited                     markad  started  by  vdr  in  edit  function  and exits
              immediately
               <record>                  is the name of the  directory  where  the  recording  is
              stored
