I believe I have seen subtitles (or they might be close captioning) in
commercials as well.

Subject: Re: [mythtv] Commercial Flagging Idea
I have recently done a complete restructure of the commercial flagging
code. You can now easily add a new commercial dection method "plugin".
(look at CommDetectorBase). Currently we have one method, which is
Classic, which Chris wrote almost everything of. I made this change to
more easily do work on the commercial detection, but as of today none of
my work is far enough to start testing it. Good scene change detection
is holding me, (and the current implementations accuracy for that
matter) back.
Forgive me if this has been suggested before, but what about detecting
subtitles? Almost every show has subtitles but they are missing from
most commercials. Mixed with scene change detection it seems that
checking for subtitles could be a very reliable way of telling what
was worth watching. Assuming of course that your box records
subtitles correctly.
