I got a little idea for this long ago. I have no idea how doable it is
but here it is: Most tv channel put their logo somewhere on the screen
but not during commercials. As these logo are small it shouldn't be too
cpu intensive to watch for them.
However this woudldn't be perfect as tv channels uselly show this logo
also during their "omn commercial" (the next show, film of tomorow, etc).
Until now it's the only idea i got wich seems both cpu friendly and
reliable (at least within its own limits).
Did someone got some other idea on this topic ? Perhaps that by combining
some other strange ideas we can get something good ;)
