"ReplayTV has a 30 sec advance button in addition to the fast forward controls."

With a tivo do this and you got the same thing:

Type in select-play-select-3-0-select to turn on the 30 second skip mode. You should hear a "ding-ding-ding" sound. That means you've made change.

is that some kind of hidden sequence, or is it documented?

also, did Replay ever implement that feature where you could send a friend with another Replay a recorded show over an ethernet/cable modem? I know they were being sued for that also, the MPAA and RIAA own the courts.
