If you live in the US, and broadcasts are delivered to you with IPTV, then reading about SCTE-35 might be of interest.
Though I don’t know if these control messages are actually included in the video stream that is broadcast to the viewers, so it might be a dead end, but I think I read that at least some channels do include them in the broadcast stream. Might be worth looking into.
