[mythtv-users] Tivo has Commercial Skip in US

Tivo has been advertising that the new Bolt has commercial skip for 20 
popular US networks. This is driven by human commercial tagging 
available at sometime after broadcast for many prime time shows.

It's not clear if Tivo is doing the tagging in house, or if there is 
some outsource for this.

It makes me wonder if there is a fee based service that could be 
integrated in to MythTV. Perhaps Schedulesdirect could buy and integrate
this data.

Honestly, the auto commerical marking in Myth works very poorly on all 
but a few programs on US cable.
