Hello,
So I've been using h264ts_cutter to chop the beginning and end of my HD PVR .ts files to this point, but I've got tons of them sitting here for months now with commercials, waiting for me to figure out just how to handle them. I've done a bit of reading before posting, and it does seem like there's some possibilities in this area now (there weren't really any back at the beginning of the year when I got the HD PVR), but there doesn't seem to be a 'best' way about this.
I've read of two methods....a method involving dgavcdec (which didn't go well for me as I was unable to open the dga file I called in my avs script), and a method using x264vfw (which I'm toying with at the moment).
I've got to believe that there's some people out there who have this down to a science now, and might be willing to point me to the end-all be-all 'best' way for me to go about doing this. Please?

Over the air TS files use 15 frame GOPs (1/2 sec). H.264 would not be an off air capture and has much longer GOPs depending on source.

The Hauppauge HD PVR uses 32 frame GOPs for 720p and 64 frame GOPs for 1080i.
Try TsSniper for keyframe only cuts with no reencoding. It works better than h264ts_cutter.
DgAvcDec is currently the best tool for decoding the HD PVR files. Your AviSynth script should look something like:
AvcSource("filename.dga")
You must put DgAvcDecode.dll in your AviSynth Plugins folder for this to work. And this will require that you reencode the entire movie. -
Why don't you use the Total Media Extreme that came with the HD PVR? It works just fine for taking out comercials.

TSSniper works pretty well with a little practice.
[EDIT] Not to denigrate anyone's generous efforts to make freeware available, but...h264ts_cutter needs some further development. It makes ugly, inaccurate cuts. Which is not to say TSSniper couldn't be improved, and I hope the author continues work on it.Pull! Bang! Darn! -
