I'll sum up comments from all of the umpteen threads that come up every so
often when someone thinks they thought up a new way to detect
commercials... :)
* yes, its in the VBI data
* yes, it's been though of
* no Myth doesn't use it
* because no one has spent the time to work on it
:)
Commercial skip has been working well enough for me lately that I
haven't been motivated to work on it as much as othe things like
Storage Groups, etc. that I have a more immediate need for. I
don't think there's anything in the experimental branch for ratings
symbol detection either.
