Re: [DVR] DCX3400 - 30 Second Skip Forward

yea I had this problem too, I had to get help over at the jp1 forum which luckly they helped me! I forgot to post it here, so here it is

I know I was not the only one looking for this. Since I couldn't find an answer I had to head over to the JP1 forums (they make the remotes) and found some very nice helpful people. I would like to thank vickyg2003 a forum regular over at JP1 Remotes as well as Rob for directing me to the forums.

1)Select Aux
2) Hold setup 2 flashes
3) type 01376 2 flashes

1) select Aux button
2) Hold SETUP, 2 flashes
3) Type 994, 2 flashes
4) Tap SETUP
4) Enter the EFC 00173
5) Tap the button to be programmed [Cbl][triangle], 2 flashes

Make sure on step 5 you hit cbl button first before triangle. Again all credit goes to vicky over at JP1. Here is the original post

Please register over there and give thanks if you have time! I just wanted to post it here since I didn't even know who made the comcast remotes before I started looking around cause I couldn't get skip to work. I can confirm this is working.

the trick is hitting the cable button then the button you want to skip that way you put the skip button under cable and not aux

The only issue I had with D Smoke's fix on my Motorola DCX3400 with the new "bronze" Comcast remote was that by reprogramming the Aux button to control the Moto, the following issue arose. When I turn on the equipment using the "All On" button on the remote, it would:

1. Turn on the cable box
2. Turn on the TV
3. Turn OFF the cable box

This occurred because the remote automatically cycles through all three entries (Cable, TV and Aux) when you press the "All On" button (the same issue arises when turning off everything).

The fix is to use the technique described by D Smoke but then go back and reprogram the Aux button to something other than "01376." (Mine was originally programmed to "20503.") Once I made this last change, absolutely everything works as I hoped.

Thanks to D Smoke for posting the codes and to vickyg2003 at JP1 Remotes.

Sorry about the long quote and post but I wanted to keep all of this together.

You need to tap cable before tapping the button to be programmed. You don't need to tap the triangle button. Here's the complete process:

1) Select AUX
2) Hold SETUP 2 flashes
3) type 01376 2 flashes

1) Select AUX
2) Hold SETUP, 2 flashes
3) Type 994, 2 flashes
4) Tap SETUP
4) Enter the EFC 00173
5) Tap CABLE
6) Tap the button to be programmed, 2 flashes

After this is complete, go back and set AUX back to your usual auxiliary device code.
