There's a "known" issue (with an unknown cause) that results in 
"near-real-time commercial detection" hitting the end of the file.  If 
you either disable "Start auto-commercial-detection jobs when the 
recording starts" in mythtv-setup or re-run commercial detection after 
the recording finishes, detection should be as reliable as it was in 
0.24-fixes.
