30-Second Skip (BlueCurve)

[kenohrn]

Skipping forward 30 seconds and back 15 seconds using the BlueCurve remote (pg up / pg dn) no longer works.

It cannot be restored using the sequence exit-exit-exit 0030 <Shaw>.

Especially I miss the option - Skipping back 15 seconds!

Is there any way to return in back, please?!?

[kenohrn]

Somehow, this skip feature has returned. It is very welcome.

@kenohrn -- if you "speak" into your BlueCurve remote, saying "skip forward 30 seconds", what happens?  🙂

This work for me! Thank you! 😃

Once or twice a year, this happens to me, so I hit exit exit exit 0500, back to 5 minutes, restart the box, then exit exit exit 0030 to set it back to 30 seconds.

Usually just resetting to 30 seconds will work fine, but if it is being stubborn, I use the above method. Using voice to skip will work, but it will kill your batteries. You could try skipping 3 minutes using voice if you are trying bypass commercials.
