30 second skip TiVo

Thanks to the internet I was able to get the 30 second (commercial) skip working on my TiVo. Sweet!

1. Grab your TiVo remote.

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

3. On your TiVo remote, key in the following sequence:
select play select 3 0 select
SELECT PLAY SELECT 3 0 SELECT

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

5. The skip-to-hash button on your remote will now skip forward 30 seconds during playback.

6. The previous function of the skip to hash button (that is, jumping to the next "hash" mark on the playback progress bar at the bottom of the screen) can still be accessed by first pressing fast forward or reverse. Press the fast forward button and then press skip-to-hash and the playback will advance to the next hashmark (or the end of the program if you're close to the end of playback.) Press the rewind button and then the skip-to-hash and you jump back to the previous hash mark, or the beginning of the program depending on your place in the playback. Skipping past the end of the program takes you back to the start of playback.
