Yes! That's exactly what this one does. It skips ahead in increments of 30 seconds, and back in increments of 7 seconds. Very useful!

Yes. In XBMC, for movies, LEFT=back 30 sec, RIGHT=forward 30 sec, UP=fwd 10 min... and I assume down = back 10 min but I don't think I ever tried that! For shorter content (like music videos) 30 sec is replaced by 5 or 10 seconds. (I believe the app dictates these times.)

In windows 7 media center, you can skip forward I think is 30 seconds, and back 15, to do multiples you enter a multiplier so if you wanted to skip ahead 5 minutes you would do a 10 then the skip ahead. Though if you don't do it fast enough it will jump you to channel 10 on the TV tuner.

I have used my remote to rewind and play the tapes. The touch screen got to where I could not use for any functions but could rewind & play the tape I had in there. That is all I have really used the remote for. Love the camera though.

I returned the item a long time ago, but I think you can actually come into a show already on the air, press "rec" and start watching, and then after that you can press "pause" and "play" all you wish. You cannot do this with a show that you set to record and then walked in on mid-way. Nor can you do the "rec/pause" trick while the unit is already recording a show - without messing up your recording.

it has a min. .10 seconds and a max.60 seconds i believe .........i have mine up right now or i would double check..........it might have a max.of only .30 seconds(sorry) but those are the ranges and then there is a delay mode which is kind of "cool" which gives u default .05 seconds or u can set it to .30 seconds max. in between the video that just recorded and the next video.............so it isnt just taking one after the other after the other(breaks the videos up)............

Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons. I had to do it one button at a time, manually. As to how that works, I'm sorry but I can't remember exactly. I just remember fighting with the thing for a long time.This remote has now become nearly useless, as the main select button has to be mashed hard to get it to react, and the up/down selector ring is also barely functioning. It has also become very position sensitive and has to be pointed directly at the Dish box to work, and is slow even then.I have bought a new Sony RM-VLZ620 to replace it. Sorry I was not more help. If I knew then what I know now about the URC, I would have sent it back. You should too. Mine wouldn't do the auto program or the one where you point the old one at it and press all the buttons.

No, there is not a separate DVR button. The Xfinity button will get you to the menu and from there you can access the DVR recordings.

It does have time remaining etc. as others have stated but if you fast forward (<< or >> buttons) or skip track (|< or >|) it reverts to elapsed time. You have to reset the display button on remote to get back to remaining time. Very annoying for me since I'm often previewing dance mix cds for live play at a dance class and I want to determine what part of the beginning or end of a track I want to mix out. Remaining time is the best way to judge that. Why they revert to elasped just because I FF a few seconds when I've set to remaining is beyond me.

In my experience, you can record one channel on the DVR while watching another channel via the DVR, or record two channels on the DVR at once as long as you only are watching one of those two channels. However, when using this DMR,if you are recording from from a stored DVR recording over to this DMR, and then try to watch another channel on TV, this product will switch over and record whatever is playing on the TV screen. Maybe it depends on how you hook it up. In my case, I have RCA leads going from the DVR to the DMR (and an HDMI back from the DMR to the TV), and also an HDMI going from the DVR to the TV.

It takes a few seconds before recording starts after you push record. As for looking at it, I don't think it knows if you're looking at it or not. Just push the record button, look wherever you want.

I can preselect programs with Dish's TV Guide and time them just as I would with the DVR. Both are then matched to make sure the correct recording happens (although I always spare a couple minutes before and after for a program, showtimes on certain channels are always unpredictable). Both Dish and Philips allow for weekly/daily/weeklong/weekend programming, so manually it becomes a breeze after a while (until a channel decides to switch times on shows for no good reason, then it becomes a eyesore of a chore).I also use RCA cables for my DVR and programmed it to the only channel that accepts a signal (ch 4), that way I only have to worry about Dish, channel wise. EXT1 source is used for any VCR-DVR dubbing. I can preselect programs with Dish's TV Guide and time them just as I would with the DVR.

This unit has a rewind button. It does not have automatic rewind. It automatically shuts off at the end of a tape during playback. During rewind or fast forward, you have to manually press the stop button at the end of the tape. Battery life is decent, but it only uses one AA battery. When playing a tape, expect the battery to last about four hours.

Hello, Recording is rather simple with this machine. Once turned on , press record, let it initialize, press record,,again. You have to hit the stop button twice for it to stop recording. to play back hit play. Your recording should play back. I have several of these recorders and one does not playback through the recorder only through the computer. I had no problem getting the company to send a replacement.

The pause button is the same as the record button. So if you're recording and want to pause the recording, just press the rec/pause button.

I'm still getting used to mine, but, yes, you can start recording right away. Just hit the red rec/pause button. Every time you stop a recording (by hitting the black stop button), then hit the rec/pause, it starts a new recorded file. I'm still tinkering with mine and getting used to the fast-forward and rewind functions, but I like it so far. If you haven't downloaded the complete user manual, you should. It'll answer any questions you have about operating the recorder.

Absolutely. That is exactly how I use it. The Menu button replaces the Xfinity button. Note: When watching recorded TV use the Play button for both Play and Pause. Use the Exit button to Stop your recorded TV program as the Stop button will not do it. However, the Stop button works on DVD's, Blu-Ray Disks, and when using things like Netflix.

During the recording of videos there is no pause button. However the starting and stopping of the recording is very fast. During playback of recorded videos it is possible to pause the playback and then resume playing the video.

It records continuously "in the background" in a 6-hour buffer (last 6 hours you've tuned to), so when you're watching live TV and want to replay or save something, you press PAUSE, which freezes the pic at that point. When you want to resume watching that show, you press PLAY and you'll see the remaining part that you missed while paused. You'll be in "Chase Play" mode, which allows you to skip commercials, etc. until you catch back up to the live show.
