Auto Mute (or Reduce) Volume of Commercials During Live TV

Description

I saw an article today about a company building a hardware box to level the volume of those annoyingly loud commercials that seem so much louder than the TV show you are watching.

I figured since MythTV can identify commercials (at least in recordings) then it would be so cool if I could select a volume level from (0-100%) for commercials during live TV watching. I can skip commercials during recordings but while watching Live TV it would be awesome if I could at least lower the volume. Today I am always hitting my mute button when a commercial starts and there are probably others like me that would use a feature like this.

While it's a valid and neat idea, this is a feature request without patch. If you would like to submit a patch for such a feature, please feel free to submit a new ticket with the patch attached.

Not to belabor the point but is there another mechanism for people to submit these types of ideas for future consideration for people who might have a good idea but are not able to provide code?
