Update: I did some more searching and learned how to run mythcommflag 
manually.  I can run it successfully as the mythtv user.  Thus something 
must be off in how the backend calls mythcommflag?

I ran mythtv-setup.  This is my "Commercial Detection Command" in the 
general settings:

/usr/bin/ionice -c 2 -n 7 /usr/bin/mythcommflag

Does this need to be modified?  This command works manually as the 
mythtv user:

mythtv at mythfe01 ~ $ /usr/bin/ionice -c 2 -n 7 /usr/bin/mythcommflag -f 
/tv0/record/1010_20130509035900.mpg
