Change the default forward skip on Sage Remote?

[brandypuff]

Is there a way to change the skip forward seconds on the default SageTV remote? I want to increase the 10 second default to 15 seconds.

Thanks, after more than 10 years of using Sage, I am still learning stuff.

Even better there is a plugin that will customize both SkipFwds based on program title. So if NBA game have 150 second commercial breaks and NHL games have 120 second commercial breaks then the skip times will be remembered based on the title.

do the clients have to be restarted for this change to take effect? i changed the forward time skip on the server but it isn't working.

I think the setting is local to each client. Change it there.

Pretty sure that you don't have to restart anything. Try changing it and skipping while keeping an eye on the timeline. I have changed this to really large numbers in the past, like 3600 and it worked immediately.

The setting is local to the client. I found that out when I installed a new mini-client and could not figure out when it was different the all of the rest of them.
