Are you talking about commercial skipping or just fast forwarding?

AFAIK The information for commercial skipping is stored in the Myth
Database, and not in the file and that database info doesn't apply to
anything in the videos directory.
I think there is a way to re-code the recordings and remove the
commercials from the recording, but I've never tried that.
