Control Question...

The same sequence that turns the clock on also turns it off, the sequence is a toggle. You need to select a menu for it to be removed from the screen. The 30s skip stays on as long as the unit doesn't restart or reboot.

what clock??

Select-Play-Select-9-Select

Besides the 30 second skip and the display clock functions, are there any others key hacks? For example, can the 30 seconds be set for 60 instead? I hesitate to randomly experiment because I might accidently find the "self destruct" combination

The 30s can't be changed to something else, like 60s.

Another sequence that I use is Select-Play-Select-Pause-Select.
This one causes the bottom green status bar to disappear more quickly.

And, because my DirecTV DVR is a series 1, I use Slow-0-Record-ThumbsUp to enable sorting of the Now Playing List.

That's cool - just tried this out through my Slingbox and there it is - a clock. It also has a counter that shows how far through the show you are Nice.

Thanks for this tip.
