 StartTime and EndTime for video This feature was suggested by a friend of mine and motivated by the ideea that he like to watch for example a list of episodes from a series. Usually, at the begining there is something like 3-4 minutes "previously in ....." and at the end you have another 2-3 minutes of credits that he wants to skip. All this created using a bsl file. Can it be done ? See the attached file.  |

At least a starttime like "Start movie at x seconds" should be possible to implement as already possible using the command line parameter -stime=x An "early ending time" or "Early terminate movie at x seconds from end" would indeed be a totally new (and interesting) feature. Edit: meanwhile found out that this feature was already asked five years ago (click here).

I think the easiest way to show you how these command-line parameters work is to first create a new shortcut to BS.Player (or simply copy the present one). Save the new shortcut under any name in a folder a folder to your liking, making sure the user's rights/privileges for that folder are OK. Now edit "Target" of this newly created shortcut (rightclick on it > Properties) and add to the end of the existing line a <space> followed by: "[MyDrive]:\[MyPath2File]\[MyMovieFile.avi]" (Of course instead of the [My....] etc fill in the appropriate data.) Now you cou can also add further parameters like e.g. <space>-fs<space>-stime=120<space>-hide (Meaning/function of these parameters are as indicated in the file "cmdline.txt" which is in the folder named "doc" inside BS.Player's installation-folder.) Save the shortcut after having finished editing it. Now test it first (without BS.Player already running; in BS.Player's preferences 'autostart' should be selected). If it doesn't work, there may be a typo in the part you edited in the shortcut's target. Maybe copy the line in a further post on this forum so that we may take a look at it. (Don't forget to also mention your OS please.) Also let us know if you succeeded of course! Contents of cmdline.txt: Code: Command line parameters ----------------------- -fs Start in fullscreen mode -ar=W:H Aspect ratio, ex.: -ar=16:9 -asx Start with x audio stream x=1-> 1st audio stream x=2-> 2nd audio stream x=n-> n audio stream -pan Pan-scan mode -nsub Disable subtitles -skin=SKIN Start with specified skin, ex.:-skin=Base -res=WxHxDxF Startup resolution (W=width, H=height, D=color depth, F=Frequency), ex.: -res=800x600x32-80 -lang= Specify language, ex:. -lang=English -eend Exit when movie is finished -sdown Shutdown when movie is finished -stime=x Start movie at x seconds -deskmode Start in desktop mode -hide Hide controls

You shouldn't include the square brackets [ ] !! Like I indicated quote "Of course instead of the [My....] etc fill in the appropriate data." unquote So e.g. the command line should read: "C:\Program Files\BSplayerPro\bsplayer.exe" "D:\S01E01\Season 1\asd.avi" -stime=120 -hide Further note that 6500 seconds as chosen by you is a totally unrealistic value for this parameter!!!!! (1 hour and 48 minutes) Maybe try again, but now without the square brackets and with a realistic value, so that you can see it does work!

Also tested and fully working on a laptop under Vista Home Basic SP2 (BS.Player Free 2.6.3.1071 installed with all default settings and its preferred internal codecs.) Will test further. (P.S.: For working with playlist files better read the other thread: How to start playing video from playlist on Windows start?)

Tested on my wife's laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 64bits OS) and it worked flawlessly! (This also concerns BS.Player Free installed with its default settings and codecs/filters) So I'm starting to think you made an error somewhere or the codecs/filters used on your PC are playing a trick on you? Did you also install BS.Player with all its default settings and at installation did you allow BS.Player to internally install its preferred codecs/filters? What filters/codecs does your BS.Player use for playback of the file(s) you used to test? (To find out load the file and then rightclick > Options > Filters > Advanced. Then click on "source" and on the small +signs in front of the codecs/filters shown to get further info and access.)

I did.  But if you make 72 episodes as StartTime and EndTime for each. Shortcuts are a lot. What you showed. I think it's for first episode. Could you do example: StartTime and EndTime for five episodes. -stime=300 -etime=900 I would be easier if it all the settings in .bsl file Something like that.  [Movie] Title=Merlin.2008.S01 Directory=. Merlin.2008.S01E01.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=124 -etime=2433 Merlin.2008.S01E02.WS.PDTV.XviD-AFFiNiTY.avi -stime=134 -etime=2444 Merlin.2008.S01E03.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=154 -etime=2445 Merlin.2008.S01E04.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=144 -etime=2465 Merlin.2008.S01E05.WS.PDTV.XviD-BiA.avi -stime=133 -etime=2477 Merlin.2008.S01E06.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=88 -etime=2454 Merlin.2008.S01E07.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=102 -etime=2422 Merlin.2008.S01E08.WS.PDTV.XviD-AFFiNiTY.avi -stime=300 -etime=2412 Merlin.2008.S01E09.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=122 -etime=2432 Merlin.2008.S01E10.WS.PDTV.XviD-RiVER.avi -stime=138 -etime=2427 Merlin.2008.S01E11.WS.PDTV.XviD-AFFiNiTY.avi -stime=134 -etime=2436 Merlin.2008.S01E12.WS.PDTV.XviD-BiA.avi -stime=132 -etime=2414 Merlin.2008.S01E13.WS.PDTV.XviD-ORGANiC.avi -stime=122 -etime=2422 Something like that.  |

Seems that's more or less the same as the new feature requested by adicoto in the very first post of this thread (as contents of a bsl-file of course reflect contents of an actual playlist). With respect to -etime you express this as movietime (in seconds from from the beginning of the file), whereas another possibility would be to express this as the number of seconds that playback should be terminated before reaching the total movietime of a video. Either method could do the trick and I think that any preference for one or the other depends on exactly how one intends to apply such new requested feature. Let's keep our fingers crossed!

It's no coincidence, as stated in my first post, after discussing with a friend....which is my countryman, Dany.

You're right BSPeter. I really do not know. where does put "-stime=300". And thank you for your help and also to support adicoto.  I thought. if you can sustain my idea. Not remain forgotten like many other ideas.  Last edited by Dany456; 14th December 2012 at 02:32 PM. |
