I have programming codes which allow you to skip ahead 30sec and back 15sec in dvr mode. I have used this on a Comcast remote in Colorado and just used it on a Time Warner Atlas remote in California.
I assigned mine to the PIP channel + ahead 30sec. - Back 15 sec plus I already have a dedicated back 7sec button enjoy!
Here's a commercial skip trick for the DVR. Find a button on your remote that is not used. I chose the PIP +button. Follow the instructions and you'll have a new button that skips forward 30 seconds each time you press it.
