Any talk of Smart Media Cutter please take it to the dedicated thread here, that is the right thread to discuss how it works, not in here.

@ Jack75 .......... If you want to try VRD i might be able to help you if you send me a PM.

If only removing adverts from TV shows or movies then SMC should be all you need, and SMC will change your .TS container files to .MP4 without recoding.

Good Luck
