Romeo and CC and Skip

There is no Auto-skip (unless you use KMTTG). For CC, Hold the B button to turn on and off.

 

Isn't that the Info button, then press down a couple times to the CC?
Its faster if you hold the Blue B button until you hear a ding.

The so called auto-skip you mentioned isn't auto, you have to press D or Channel up or down and only if there is the skip icon on the show.

What does this mean? Manually turn it on each time? Once?

Give us some details.

I have no idea what this means, sorry. I'm unclear what "Accessories" is. Perhaps you have a different OS than me (I'm on old-school TE3).

My original reply was to your comment about captions "I have to manually turn it on". Everyone has to manually turn it on. At least once. I was asking if you have an ongoing problem with captions.

 

Auto Skip does work with Roamio, just like it does with Bolt.

You can turn it on per show or go into settings and change Skip from Manual to Auto for all recordings.

I'm probably not going to be able to help you. But, others might if you provide info on which UI you're using. TE3 or TE4. If you don't know what those are check the version number of the software. Does your's start with 20 or 21?

 

Wow I didn’t know the 4.0 software can figure out commercials. I had the notification for the update and never did it.

Anyone know how I can force the the download to update it. Now I need this

He is on TE4/Hydra/v21.x.

 

Now I remember why I didn’t do the update the back button is used a lot. I have the newer Samsung tv that is the learning universal remote and it does not have enough of the TiVo buttons on it.

Can someone confirm these questions for me?

if I update and set the commercial skip to auto will it be set and I won’t have to do it every show?

Does this only work for certain shows that have the “skip icon” on the now playing list, the way I hit channel up on TE3 or does it do it for any program?

 

Auto Skip only applies to the shows with the Skip icon. It just means you won’t have to hit Ch Up.

You set it once and then never again.

It seems you’re already on TE4 so just go change the setting to Auto. This isn’t a major life decision, just do it and experiment and enjoy.

 

I’m on TE3 with the blue menus that look like the way it has for years

Thanks for confirming. I like my Samsung remote so I would be making it harder needing the back button so I will keep what I have. I’ll stick with the channel up it’s not a big deal at all. If it did it for all shows then it may have been worth it
