For those who don't use the 30 second skip (and I can't imagine life
with a TiVo without it) anyway, what Michael explains below about if you
shift into fast forward mode, the right skip button will skip to the next
tick will still work.

Subject: Re: [TiVo Central] 30 second skip
a perfectly reasonable question, wombat.
once you re-program the skip, the button will regularly skip ahead 30
seconds. it will no longer skip to the end of the recorded program.
(however, if you shift into fast forward mode, the right skip button
will still "skip to the tick" - i.e., skip ahead to the next 15 minute
marker. so you can still get to the end a program relatively easily.)
sometimes tivo does system updates which knock out the
re-programming....in my experience this happens maybe once a month or
so. also, if you unplug the tivo, you will have to re-program this hack.
please don't let the big media companies know about the 30-second skip -
they would be very unhappy. ;-)
