[mythtv] Comm flagging not working CVS 18.20050409-1

[Greg Grotsky]

I have this problem as well.  I'm trying to use the commercial
detection on the fly and as soon as I start recording the episode, I
can bring up another mythfrontend and check the system status to see
where the commercial flagging is.  It's always says "Finished 0 Breaks
Found".  I'm using CVS from April 22nd.

Here's the important stuff from the output of "mythfrontend -v commflag"

You likely won't get any video.

I'm not sure if it's supposed to tell you when it's complete but by
this point I had already checked the system status and it was
"Finished 0 Breaks Found".

Weird..
