Question What is the state of the art in automatic commercial removal?

I have seen many threads from 2006 and back about automatically removing commercials with ShowAnalyzer and comskip. I was wondering what solutions people use today? Which is better today: ShowAnalyzer, comskip, or something else?

Your help is most appreciated!

I use Comskip currently. I'm getting ready to try out ShowAnalyzer just to give it a try and to try out it's h.264 commercial detection (for my HD-PVR).

A little how-to on using either one can be found here

Another tool to try out is Babgvant's DVRMSToolbox

Assuming you're running Windows any of the above will work. Erik, author of comskip, is currently integrating AVC-HD support (HD-PVR) into the tool now.

On Linux, forum user trueno is working on a port of MythTVs commercial detection tool as well. I am using Wine and Comskip for now.

If you're on a Mac, the only SageTV solution I am aware of is my ComChecker utility which is an ugly face on top of Comskip and Wine.
