You're doing it again! Wasn't this raised before? I'm extremely sceptical of a plan to reimplement a media centre / home-theatre PC in bash scripts - just install MythTV and stop trying to reinvent the wheel. I'm surprised that detecting adverts is as simple, where you are, as detecting aspect ratio changes, because it ain't that easy elsewhere. But MythTV already has ad detection built-in. IIRC it uses different parameters for different countries / channels - in some places advertising can be identified by the lack of a channel logo that is watermarked in the corner of the screen over the TV show. >> There's also a program that tries to detect advertising, IIRC also >> using aspect changes as indicators.
