 Replying to [comment:7 bryan@…]:

 Hi Bryan. Please understand this is feedback - a couple of data points. I
 certainly appreciate you sharing your efforts.

 I successfully added your mythcommflag.patch to the current development
 tree. I ran it on my two test recordings I'm working with, and using
 --method 7 (ie all) and also 6 (logo+scene) I didn't detect any
 commercials. The current master detects 2 of the 3 commercial breaks (and
 gets the timing correct on one of them). What I observe is that fewer
 Blanks are being detected (27 versus 35), and not consecutively. That
 combined with my observation that all methods are dependent on blank
 detection (I have found it useless to use any method without also
 detecting blanks), than this is a problem in my test set.

 Hope you find the feedback useful. I shall go back to trying to figure out
 whether New Zealand TV2 is sending NULL/blank subtitles to clear subtitles
 off the screen... I wish there was some good debugging code to break down
 what is going on with DVB-T subtitle streams in a H.264 broadcast.
