[COMCAST] 30 second skip on 6412 DVR

And just a side note... you do not have to use the HD Zoom button. You can choose whichever button you wish. I personally use the FAV button. Many other use the "Stop" button as it's not really needed for DVR.

True... forgot to mention that.

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.

Are you running the DCT-6412 DVR? I cant get the 30sec. skip to work on mine. Are you using the comcast remote or a aftermarket one? any help or input on this would be great

thanks

reply to RMAntala01
Yup I'm using the Motorola 6412 DVR and the remote that came with it...

What problem are you having?

We have the remote control "ENT-6412-3005 AB" and it does not have a "Setup" button. Because of this missing button, I cannot follow your instructions. Do you know if there is a corresponding "Setup" button on the "ENT-6412-3005 AB" remote control?

Thanks,

The link below has an image of the remote Comcast gave us. The only difference is that we only have four device buttons at the top, and not six as in the image.

BTW we are in Boulder, CO.

How do you re-program the HD Zoom button back to normal if you want to do so in the future?

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. Very nice.

Thanks. I didn't see the HD Zoom button on the list. So if I want it to go back to default, what is the code? And how did you know that 173 was 30 second skip? It just says "N"?

Look at the PVR functions at the bottom, it says Skip. I think it's N if you don't have a DVR box.

Oops, didn't see that. How do you go back to HD Zoom? (If you want to)

Does HD Zoom ever do anything?

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.

Nope, I have the MSTV in Seattle and the HD Zoom did nothing at all.

Has anyone in the Seattle area running the 6412 with the Microsoft software(MicrosoftTV logo in upper corner of program guide) gotten the 30 second skip code to work? I have tried it on both the included remote and on my universal Radio Shack remote(15-1994) with no success. A friend has also tried on his unit with no luck either.

Thanks for you help!

I never got the 30 second skip to work pieterw, and I'm in Seattle with the MSTV and 6412. I got the other codes (I posted the link further up) like Music and such programmed just fine to buttons like TV/VCR but never the 30 second skip. Must only work on the iGuide or other interfaces.

I never saw an answer on how to program the ENT-6412 for the 30 second skip. Did I miss it? I see the codes but no instructions on how to enter the code into the remote....
