What would be nice is to be able to fine tune the algorithms for a
particular show. Say you record a show every week that doesn't work
well with scene change detection well due to the editor and/or
directors style. Well it would be nice to have a set of rules
attached to that recording schedule which could lower the weight of
the scene detection algorithm when determining if something is a
commercial or not.
