[mythtv-users] How Does Commercial Flagging Work?

[Darryl Hirschler]

How did I know somebody would say "look at the source"?  If we ever want
Linux to take off, we need to try to offer better explanations to
people.

Anyways, I believe the commercial flagging works by looking for a blank
frame.  I think it also studies the station logo.
