There is a commandline way to automatically convert commercial
autodetection points into a cutlist (same a s doing a "z" in edit
cutlist) - search the archives and you should find it.
Don't know about everyone else, but I almost never find a recording
where I'm 100% satisfied with the autodetected cutpoints. Sometimes
part of the show gets cut, too. I don't think I would ever want to
automate cutlist editing based on my experience.
