[mythtv-users] Commercial Flagging in 0.22 - no success.

[Manuel McLure]

I've noticed that since I upgraded to 0.22, commercial flagging is not
producing usable results. On 0.21 commercial flagging was quite good -
I'd see maybe one bad flag per three or four 1 hour shows. Now I'm
lucky to see one good flag per 3 or 4 shows. The flags often seem to
be in the very middle of show segments or ads - in fact they seem
almost random. If I watch a show that I recorded before the upgrade,
flags are correct, so it does not seem to be a playback issue.

I'm running 0.22-fixes SVN revision 23069 on 64-bit Gentoo. On both
0.21 and 0.22 I use the "All Methods" commercial flagging, and
changing the "Strict Commercial Detection" setting does not seem to
change the behavior. Recordings are h.264 over IPTV. Normal seeking
within the show seems to work fine, so the seektable seems correct.

What commercial flagging settings in 0.22 correspond to the settings
in 0.21? I'm very close to simply turning off commflagging completely
- no use wasting CPU cycles on it if it doesn't produce usable
results.

Any tips on getting this to work properly would be greatly appreciated!
