PlexComSkip (Mac) works, but shows errors

Given my lack of terminal skill, I was surprised I got PlexComSkip.py working. However, when the script is run manually, I’m getting the following error.

Problem whacking temp dirs: /var/folders/dk/ks7ckf612jq9knt3jphk03lh0000gr/T/7348c6ce-ee9f-4ef0-a9ee-7e1ac4bd7655, /var/folders/dk/ks7ckf612jq9knt3jphk03lh0000gr/T/7348c6ce-ee9f-4ef0-a9ee-7e1ac4bd7655
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: ‘/var/folders/dk/ks7ckf612jq9knt3jphk03lh0000gr/T/7348c6ce-ee9f-4ef0-a9ee-7e1ac4bd7655’

If I’m understanding it correctly, it creates a temp director to do the work, and then deletes it. I ran the script and watched it do just that. It seems like somewhere in the process the directory gets deleted and then it’s looking for it in this cleanup process to delete it, again.
If anyone can help clear this error message, that would be appreciated. I don’t even know where to look.

So when it’s run as a post process, every single recording shows as an error with “An error occurred while postprocessing the recording.” It would be nice to get rid of that.

I also see a second message in the script, though I don’t believe it’s related to the error.

mpegts @ 0x7fe4dd827c00] start time for stream 0 is not set in estimate_timings_from_pts= 474x
[mpegts @ 0x7fe4dd827c00] Could not find codec parameters for stream 0 (Video: h264 ([27][0][0][0] / 0x001B), none): unspecified size
Consider increasing the value for the ‘analyzeduration’ and ‘probesize’ options

Again, I’m not sure exactly where to look, or if this is just an issue with the SD content or what.

Any help resolving or understanding the issues would be greatly appreciated.

Hi - I had this issue as well. There appears to be a fix;

Works for me - so far!

Follow up question.

Does post-processing, like PlexComSkip, re-encode the video? I’ve had some issues where very often I’d get a freeze frame while the audio continued. But I don’t know if it’s my reception or the post processing.
