I have another thing to check for when looking for ad-breaks: change in
aspect ratio! Several of the UK DVB-T channels do this, either switching
from 16:9 to 4:3 or from the weird '16:9-inside-4:3 mode which comes out
as having a black border round the outside with a dxr3' to a normal 16:9
mode (I think this is a weird mode which the dxr3 driver doesn't handle
properly yet).

Unfortunately, very few of the UK DVB-T channels use the logos which
noad looks for but when I had managed to record something with a logo
(the Grand Prix: has a little F1 logo!), noad did work for me.

I don't think we get AC3 broadcasts over here but I'll give that new
option a try...

Cheers,

Laz
