Tivo's 30 Second Skip Easter Egg

Tivo's 30 Second Skip Easter Egg has stopped working. Anyone having this
problem.

This is done for skipping 30 sec block by -



Grab your TiVo remote.

Bring up any recorded program. (You have to be watching a recorded program
rather than "Live TV" in order to enable the feature.)

On your TiVo remote, key in the following sequence:

SELECT PLAY SELECT 30 SELECT

If you've successfully entered the code, you should hear three "bings" in
succession to inform you that you've successfully enabled the 30 second
skip.

Note that any time your TiVo is rebooted (such as after a power outage or a
software update) you'll have to re-enable this feature.

Please share if you have any backdoors ?



TIA

The key combo is Select - Play - Select - 3 - 0 - Select

And is best accomplished while watching a previoulsy recorded show.

And remember your tivo looses the function evert time it's cold-started or reset.

I think I had a SW update during the night sometime and my 30 sec.
skip had to be reset this morning.

I've had it revert a couple times for no appraent reason that I could
see.
Not a problem to do a quick reset, though.
