Years ago when VCR's were really popular, I had a VCR with built in Commercial Skip Feature. It worked pretty good most of the time. What happened is you Record the show(s), then it would Auto Rewind and then FF though the Tape and Mark where the Commercial started and ended. When you went back to watch the tape, when it got to a commercial, it would automatically FF right though them all and start playing once again when the program started again. It wasn't always perfect, but the few times it would screw up, you could see it and rewind back or whatever if need be.
I use Media Center now to record OTA HD programs sometimes. I also have it setup to skip Commercials. It kind of works the same way, just without a tape. It's not 100% perfect, but it works pretty darn good.
Even my HD Comcast Cable box, It's not Automatic, but I can FF at the correct speed, and count just right, and stop it before the program starts again about 80% of the time. Generally if I'm off, it's because the commercials happen to be running longer them normal.
What's really bad, charging $1.99 per TV Episode. What a Rip-Off!!!
What I don't get, is why is it called UltraViolet in the first place. They are copying the name of the movie Ultraviolet!!! You know staring Milla Jovovich so it's a little confusing. It's not a Original Name.
I won't get into the whole Ultraviolet light area for example, but Naming your new Movie format after a Movie that came out in 2006 seems wrong to me. Strange? Copy Cats?
Are you smoking something? You know how many people were KILLED not playing along with Communism. How many people are thrown in jail because of it having done nothing wrong. Right now just take a Look at Cuba, North Korea, China, throw China has been moving more over to Capitalism, kind of a Hybrid of the 2.
Capitalism is based on people working HARD, making a living off there own work. Hoping to make it BIG! Socialism is for the LAZY, greedy people. You have one group working hard to make money, and then the government comes along and steels a chunk of your money and just gives it away to others that sit on their lazy butt!!! It's never enough, they want more more handouts because they get greedier and greedier, and the Government spends and spends the country into DEPT because there's not enough Rich people to steel money from!!! The lower 40% of the U.S. Population pay ZERO in Federal Taxes. How is that fair again? Spread the Wealth, create a bunch of Lazy & Greedy people that can't go out and get a job because the Government wants people to rely on it and not themselves.
The U.S. really hasn't been a Capitalist country for the last 100 years. It's been moving to the Left, Socialism for quite some time.
