I do this too - except that I have never run commflag. Of course many
of my recordings are from the BBC and don't have 'commercials' as such;
but they promote other BBC stuff with great enthusiasm.
On TV recordings I use the editor, usually with skip lengths between 1
minute and 1 keyframe, which gives completely acceptable control unless
one is aiming to do 'real' video editing.
With DVB radio the smallest 'supported' step size is 1 second, but the
half-second step can be used to cut with a real granularity of 1/3
seconds with some experimenting.
After that, which usually takes 'a few' minutes, myth will play with no
need for stepping; I usually go on to remove the cuts altogether, which
saves a lot of disk space.
