I'm not sure what the big picture vision for edl use is. If the automatic use of edl internal could be disabled in favor of a manual skip forward past commercial function than teeedubb could use edl when it works for him and not when it doesn't. Every once in a while I like to watch a couple commercials to remind myself how much better life is in the age of the dvr.
Just throwing in my two cents here. Having a lot of options to support extreme edge use cases will certainly turn things into a mess of settings very quickly. Having "manual" as an EDL type is a fair idea as this could be an option in the addon settings but again would be a global option. Turning it on/off per recording seems like something only a handful of people are going to benefit from. Is a setting that's only used by 1 person out of every 100 really worth it?
If you don't want commercial skip - then don't detect the commercials. You also always have the option of going backwards in the video if you want to get see the commercials after a skip. I'm sure it sounds goofy to let it skip the commercials, then rewind to see them; but so does having a system to flag all the breaks and then deciding to ignore that system and watch them anyway.
