Gareth,<br>
<br>
Which defaults ? Are you talking about default mythcommflag, with
"all available methods" ?<br>
<br>
Similar to OP I've never found commercial skipping to be worth
doing, more errors than successes.<br>
<br>
3,5,11,12,21 == ITV1,Channel5,picktv,dave,viva ??<br>
<br>
Just re-run on ITV1 and still see terrible results :-( On a 2 hour
ITV1 "Lewis" episode, algorithm picks up the rubbish before
program start perfectly, then finds 2 more adverts during the
show, there are actually about 6, both the ones it does pick up
included significant amounts of the episode itself.<br>
<br>
Not complaining it doesn't work :-), just interested that it seems
to work for you.<br>
<br>
I also tried mythcommflag wrapper, that tended to be over
enthusiastic, and find lots of small adverts all the way through.
Maybe I need to start watching American shows with continuous
laugh tracks ;-)<br>

Just for laughs: Same episode found 127 adverts with
mythcommflag-wrapper. :-)<br>
