Ok, first I tried this with a .iso which gave the following result:
mythtv at blackadder /media/movies $ mythcommflag --video Die\ Another\ Day.iso

Then I tried with a .vob which gave:
mythtv at blackadder /media/movies $ mythcommflag --video War\ of\ the\
Worlds.vob

Notice the 164%!!!! So I guess even the mythcommflag program has the
same problem as the frontend!

Also it didn't fix the problems.
