[mythtv-users] Commercial flagging - how to?

[Michael Haan]

Actually, it was running all along.  It's pretty cool!  One thing I
noticed - when I set commercials to auto-skip, sometimes they did but
most often they did not.  However, hitting "z" correctly jumped the
commercial.  Also, do I need to do anything to emply logo detection
for commercial skipping?  Do I even want to?
