Fox News and Fox Business put up a static screen when they go to a commercial break and don't want to show the commercials to the TVE stream.
It would be very helpful if Channels DVR was able to skip these segments.
Comskip doesn't recognize these placeholders as commercials because they don't act like commercials. You could post a request in their forum and see if they can make their software work for these placeholders.
For shows on CNN that I record (they use placeholders too) I deselect check for commercials so the server doesn't waste cycles on trying to detect was isn't there.
Can you selectively turn off checking?
See this post:
Shouldn't there be something under "Manage Series Pass"?
Agree you should be able to set commercial detection on or off when setting pass.
Any possibility of getting com skip working for Fox News/Business?
Thanks!
