MP1.2.0RC on W7 HTPC

When watching recorded TV the skip buttons do nothing. In WMC tere is implemented skip forward 30secs, back 10secs, which are very useful for skipping adverts! Could this be implemented?

Thanks for this - that leaves me puzzled!

When I press the skip buttons I can hear the funny little sound that MP makes in response, which suggests to me that it's receiving the signal and recognises it, but there is no skipping! I'll poke around a little more.:confused:

    Hi again cbe37

    Try using the arrow keys rather than skip buttons. Up and down do big jumps; left and right do smaller jumps. Press multiple times to increase the size of the jump.

    Many thanks for the answer. So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...
