havent played with edl... but bits and pieces of the transcoding
features that are to come in myth 0.11 are aldready present... the
'mythtranscode' script for example... you can specify something like this:
$ mythtranscode -l -k -p Transcode -s 2003-07-12-19:00:00 -c 1056
just make sure that the recording settings in the Transcode profile are
as you want them (or identical to your source recording settings if you
dont care, since your converting it to svcd anyway)
do a 'mythtranscode --help' for details on what those command line
options are... that script will output the same file it used as source
(in my case "1056_20030712190000_20030712193000.nuv") but a new file
will be there with the same name but ending in .nuv.tmp that wont
contain the commercials. then you can use the same encoding process you
have been using for converting .nuvs to svcd.
i know that isnt the answer you were looking for but the results should
be the results that you desire (svcd's with the commercials removed
according to mythtv's cutlist). or you could just wait for these
transcoding features to be fully implemented into myth... which judging
by the flurry of activity in the dev and commits list probably isnt that
far off.
hope this helps. if you get it down to a science then maybe you could
write a nice little script for all of us to use? ;-)
