rtvconvert admin

What is it?
RTVConvert Admin (RTVCA) is a freeware Windows XP/2000 application that helps ReplayTV 5K users who use Dvarchive (DVA) and a video editor ( e.g. to remove commercials) and wish to bring these edited videos back into DVArchive.

What does it do?
After the user has edited the mpeg(s) with a video editor (Womble, VideoRedoPlus, etc.), the following process is automated:

  1. Run rtvconvert on all edited videos with a filename ending with _CUT, sending the output .mpg/.ndx/.evt files to a specific directory, either:
    a) DVArchive Local Guide, if the matching xml was found
    b) User specified path which will hold files to be imported by DVA, if the matching xml was not found.
    - The destination files will end with a _rtvcvrted suffix.
  2. Delete the post-edited, rtvconvert-source mpg.
  3. Delete or Backup (user option) the original, unedited .mpg/.ndx/.evt/.xml files.
  4. Modify the matching DVA .xml file (if found) to insert the new filename and proper time in seconds.
  5. Rename the original .xml file to match the rtvconverted mpeg file name.
