    How to change jump ahead minutes.

    How do you change the jump ahead time? It defaults to 5, and 4 would be ideal.

    If there is no config for this, is there a file I can change on the box? Or perhaps fork and create a custom build? It means that much to me...trust me.

    Do you mean skip forward (and backwards) using numbered buttons, during playback?

    If so, they can be changed....

    Menu -> Setup -> Recordings, playback and timeshift -> recording and playback

    (Menu may have changed around a bit).

    Hi. No, I see that option in the menu to configure.

    If I hold down fast forward. It pops up with a screen that says "jump x mins ahead"

    X is 5 and you can move it up and down then hit ok.

    I wondered if you could change the default value to 4.

    ... don't know, but you can also change the value using the number keys.

    You could always set a skip button to 240.

    Another bug in 5.1.013?
    Holding down the fast forward key durubf a recording brings up a box that is completely devoid of any text - it just shows the number 5

    Have you considered using the 3, 6 and 9 buttons on the remote while watching a recording/timeshift
    Pressing any of these buttons will jump forward by the configurable time in Menu -> Setup -> Recordings, playback and timeshift -> recording and playback -> custom skip time for 1'3 buttons. The time is in seconds. You can set different times for the 3 buttons.
    Pressing the 1,4 or 7 buttons while watching a recording/timeshift jumps back by the number of seconds set up in that menu.

    I think it's the skin I'm using that shows the text. I just want the default value to be 4 rather than 5.

    Perhaps I'll embrace that option. I use a harmony remote, so don't easy have numbers to press.

    Happens in 5.1.012 as well, and the answers are yes and yes.
