Modification

I'd like to modify a remote TV control. Put a small microphone on it
with a volume control and an LED indicator plus a small timing circuit.
You would use the volume control to set the current speaker level with
the LED indicator and just back it off a touch. When the loud commercial
comes on the LED blinks, auto mutes the TV with the mute button and
starts the timer for 60 seconds. After 60 seconds the mute button is hit
again and sound comes back on. If the sound is still above set level it
mutes another 30 seconds and continues this until the sound returns to
normal levels.

There must be enough off-the-shelf stuff to do this with and have it fit
inside the remote. You think?

Why bother doing it with a remote?

Just put a dynamic range compressor on the TV audio output...

Your attempt to re-invent the wheel is comical.
