Seems to work OK-ish for me.

When I push the skip button it jumps to the next point at which it
thinks the ads have stopped. No error messages.

Caveat: It's not entirely accurate and sometimes misses the end of the
ad break. Luckily you can skip back :-)

It is also triggered within the ad breaks a lot so it's almost as fast
to hit the ffwd button a few times :-(

I'm using a CVS build from around the end of Nov last year, fwiw.
