Sorry, cross post.
Right then, had the opportunity to have a play.
The full length (63min) bookmarked copy was in Deleted items\detectads with the New: prefix still there. The bookmarks were all in the right place. The first was at start of actual programme, 2nd/3rd, 4th/5th, 6th/7th all correctly placed at start and end of ads. The 8th was at end of Chase and the 9th was at end of recording. So that seems pretty much OK
The cropped (41min) version in Deleted Items without the New: prefix.
Started OK at start of prog (not start of recording.
First Ads were cropped OK
Second Ads were cropped OK
Third Ads were not cropped. The programme started OK after the Ads, but a chunk has been cropped out of the middle of the section. It returns after the crop to finish the section.
Fourth Ads were not cropped, but at the end of the Ads, the programme resumed for about 5 seconds then the recording finished.
For completeness, although possibly a red herring,: At the same time as recording The Chase in HD, I was also recording Strictly in HD, with the box tuned to BBC1HD. The next time I fired up the web UI, I got a big red warning about Strictly failing to Auto decrypt, but it was showing the Dec flag and there is a copy in the Deleted items folder with no Dec flag.
As far as I can remember, this is pretty much what happened on last week's recordings of The Chase and Strictly.
Right then, I've now done an Invert and Crop on the original. Crop indicated that it was going to keep the ads which is why I inverted. Here's the log file

I will play it later and report back on the result, but I suspect it will be OK. It is 1,700,000 odd Kb in Win file explorer with this morning's date.
In case there are clashes, I am running.
