[mythtv-users] How Does Commercial Flagging Work?

[Michael Dutka]

Hey - new member here, and probably going to get a pre-built Dragon system.

Does anyone know if their system flags commercials? Didn't see anything in
their FAQ's and they didn't respond to an e-mail query.

Thanks,
            Mike
