Xfinity X1 30 Skip for non XFINITY Remotes

cicsprog · Post by **cicsprog** » Fri Feb 28, 2014 10:19 am

I'm using a NEVO Q50 with IR Code Set c1982 to control my XFINITY X1 cable box.

I see threads on setting up a 30 sec skip with the XR2 remote - EXIT EXIT EXIT 0030.

Is there a way, macro or IR code, to set a button on non XFINITY remote for 30 second skip?

Here a article where you program the XR2 remote for a 30 second skip:

I use the codeset c1982 on my NEVO Q50 and it runs all the same functions that the XR2 remotes does EXCEPT the SKIP 30 button (to skip commercials on DVR saved programs). Trying to figure out if there is a valid IR code, macro, or ?? to get the same functionality with a XFINITY X1 Cable set top box. I think this set top box is model number RNG210N.

I also was looking for a file of a break down of the HEX IR codes for the C1982 codeset. I'm not smart enough or don't have the right bait when searching all the remote sites. Was hoping the skip function might be buried in that codeset.

Thanks for any guidance.
