Thanks Andy,
One option that commflag doesn't provide is pretty UK specific...
that's the little black & white square in the top right 30secs before
an ad break.
I can't remember, is this still in use on ITV and C4?
If it is still there it'd be pretty flawless for "terrestrial" channels.

Cheers
Steve
