So I get to the end of a recorded show and I get to the Keep or Delete question. I want to see the last couple minutes over.... but it won' let me rewind! Is there a way to do this? Must I say "Keep" and then fast forward through the whole darn thing?

That's the only way I know how to do it.

I wish they'd make it so the trickplay buttons worked on the keep or delete box.

That's the way it works. My DirecTivos behave the same way, too.

I'd say, start it over and then hold the advance button down for 3 seconds to advance to the end (which really isn't the end) and then you should be able to rewind as I don't think the keep/delete comes up when you do it that way.

UTV allows you to do that. I miss that feature on the HR20.

Yes, I had Ultimate TV as well. This is stupid not being able to rewind from the end, even a VCR does that! Earl, add this to the wish list?!

Did you try this?

Matt,

Thanks for giving us another great trick! I think that these are the detailed instructions:

To replay the last few minutes of a show from the Keep/Delete popup:
Click Keep.
Click Play.
Press & hold Advance (Slip).
Use REW, Replay, or other Cruise Controls to see the end again.

True that is 3 extra clicks but it give me this feature.

I will get that added to the next Tips and Tricks.

Sorry, but Keep, Play, Press and Hold (for an eternity) is not a trick. It has the feeling of a kludge. Yeah, it works but doesn't seem very satisfying...

Happy Thanksgiving,
Tom
