How to auto skip last segment of recording?

Love channels and comskip, with one caveat. Lite purple sections are played, dark purple sections are skipped. Many of my 1 hour news programs go to commercial for the last 5 mins of a recording only to come back and say see you later and this section never marks as program. Comskip marks the last 5 minutes as commercial dark purple, but when this segment is reached it just plays instead of skipping to the end of the recording. I'm assuming this is by default but just wanted to make sure before adjusting these problem recordings by ending them 5 minutes early in a pass. Occasionally the last 5 minutes contains actual programming for breaking events and such.

What percent of a recording needs to be played for it to be considered watched?
Do I need to exit recordings and mark as watched if the last segment should be skipped?

These things could affect the keep only unwatched, and smart rules for collections and coming playlists.

The last commercial skip block does not auto skip to prevent accidentally shooting past it and immediately exiting the video.

This is specifically because there can sometimes be content in there as commercial indexing is not 100% perfect. You can still seek inside it.

Exiting the video while near this block will still consider it fully watched though as it takes that last block into consideration and understands it to be a commercial block and not content.

Thanks, as I suspected by design and makes perfect sense. You all seem to think of everything.
