C-net is reporting that a hidden command on TiVo remotes allow you to skip past the commercials.
Wanna know it?
The pattern consists of pressing the following buttons in sequence: Select, Play, Select, 3, 0, Select. Entering the same pattern again also deactivates the capability. The recorder "bings" three times to acknowledge the activation of the feature. Pressing the advance key on the remote control skips 30 seconds of recorded television programming.
Have fun!
That's Brad's favorite feature! We thought we lost it when Tivo changed to something else (I forget the name because it's really long). Brad figured it out though and all is good in our Tivo-household.
How do I tell the Dixie Chicks that when their
children or mine are dying from some biological weapon, or poison gas, that they
will be the first to ask ,why did'nt Bush do something before this happened?
