[mythtv] mythcommflag and CommDetectMaxCommLength

Hi Chris,

I've done a little testing of 0.19 mythcommflag and it seems to be working 
well.  One thing I did run across was channel Seven in Australia not having 
blank frames between adds.

Is there a good reason to keep CommDetectMaxCommLength?  This adds +20 when a 
show resumes but so does CommDetectMaxCommBreakLength and its more accurate.  
CommDetectMaxCommLength gives false positive for blank less adds or really 
long adds.  It doesn't improve detection except for show runs of less then 
395 seconds but greater then 125.

What about reducing it to a +5?

I've currently fixed this in my setup, so if your in Australia this should 
help you to:
insert into settings (value,data) values  
('CommDetectMaxCommLength','2147483647');

Best of luck,
Paul
