The wiki mentions post recording scripts here and I thought I'd share my mods to those for others:
https://tvheadend.org/projects/tvheadend/wiki/Tvheadend_post_recording_scripts
This script can be called from the DVR Post Processing command as "/usr/share/tvheadend/scripts/postprocessing.sh %f %b %e 'command'" where command is comskip or compact. It assumes recordings are in /video/Recordings/SeriesName and compact videos go to /video/videos.
