Ah ha!  Yes I was having that problem but hadn't tracked it down yet. Thanks :-)

Also in the Makefile I had to add -L/usr/lib/qt4 to get it to compile. I'm assuming this is only necessary if you enable the mythtv libs and qt libs by editing silence.cpp (which I have). 

It's found 7 breaks in a 2hour film from the other night which sounds about right to me. I shall try the chase play flagging tonight when I get home.

Thanks for all your hard work. 
Rob.
