AutoCommFlagging not starting automatically. What am I missing?

I'm just setting up a new installation of myth on a new machine and for
some reason it isn't doing automatic commercial detection on start of
recording. It should be the way I have it set up but it doesn't even try to
do commercial detection even after the recording is completed.

In mythtv-setup's "Job Queue" screen I have "Allow commerical-detection
jobs" as well as "Start auto-commercial-detection jobs when the recording
starts" checked.
The channel(s) I am recording from all have "Commercial Detection Method"
set to "Use Global Setting".
In mythfrontend's "General (Jobs)" screen I have "Commercial Detection
Method" set to "All Available Methods" and "Strict commercial detection" is
checked. The deferral is set to 0.

What am I missing??

I don't see any auto comm flag jobs show up in the "System Status"->"Job
Queue" but I can start a comm flag manually and then it show up in the job
queue.
I don't see any auto comm flag jobs show up in the backend log file either.
It's like it's been disabled.

Thanks,
-Greg

Have you checked "Allow n jobs to run on this machine?" flag? (Can't remember
exact words)

Yeah, I had that checked. I actually figured it out this morning. It was
because I created all my recording schedules with mythweb and I guess it
doesn't set the recording schedules' post processing options so none of my
recording rules had "Commercial Flag new recordings" checked. I went
through and fixed them up and I think they are working now.
