Commercial Detection Doesn't work

[JimW]

On pretty much all my recordings the commercial detection doesn't work anymore. Looking in the logs I see the following. Can anyone tell me what it means?

It works fine for me with Channels DVR running on Windows. Your error log shows a failure. The developers will need more into: Platform and source. I suggest you send diagnostics to them and add the submission number to this post.

Read that thread. Went ahead and updated to the latest release to see if that works.
