Well, here is why it makes sense. Most people ask a question in their post and leave out a lot of pertinent information. Pertinent information such as what cable company they have. I post my information up top so that there is no question.

I could put it in a Sig but I feel it is less likely to be seen.

Your point is noted. No need to reply.

That makes absolutely no sense. It also doesn't explain why you can't just put it as your sig.

It makes no sense to provide useful information to people that may find it helpful.
You are the only one that has trouble with this.

I have received many positive comments from those I have helped via those links.

Post something informative and stop posting nonsense until you can figure it out.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12237854 Tue, 28 Dec 2004 23:47:01 EDT Re: [COMCAST] 30 second skip on 6412 DVR http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,12237785 Jeremy341 : That makes absolutely no sense.

This apparently only works with the iGuide or blue guide. It works with the 6208 DVR also. It is reported to not work with the Microsoft software that being tested in Washington.

There are all the codes. Do the same procedure as in the original post, just replace the 00173 with whatever code you want. You need to put two zeros in front of the codes listed on that page. So if you want the Music function on a button use code 00082.

I was able to program the Music channels to come straight up by pressing the TV/VCR button that I never used before.

I just prefer to use the "HD Zoom" button, because I don't use it. I do however have channels marked as favorites, so the "Fav" does get some use on my remote. :)

I tried the following and it worked flawlessly for me.

The following instructions will re-program the "HD Zoom" button on the remote control to function as a "30 second fast forward" button. Works perfect for skipping through commercials. It will function when playing programs recorded on the DVR & also when playing a buffered program.

1) Press the "Cable" button at the top of the remote to put it into Cable Box control mode.

2) Press and hold the "Setup" button until the "Cable" button blinks twice.

3) Type in the code 994. The "Cable" button will blink twice.

4) Press (do not hold) the "Setup" button.

5) Type in the code 00173 (for 30 second Skip).

6) Press the "HD Zoom" button to map the skip or swap function to it.

7) You're done.
