Would also like to know what the plan is.
Only thing I could find in this thread is
Detection is "pretty close", but misses both ways sometimes and other times is spot-on.
For archiving recordings I use the VideoReDo VPrj hack and use VideoRedo to cut and save to archive.
For viewing recordings in a client or web browser, I'm still experimenting with ChDVR comskip automatic...
I agree with others that we need finer control, especially being able to disable comskip on certain channels or disable auto-skip when playing back recordings.
