fast forward V6 v 360?

Just updated from V6 to 360. on the V6 hand control you could fast forward ads etc press another button & it would stop bang on the start of the program. Is there a way to do this on 360 hand control. Its so frustrating it takes me ages back & forth to get to the right place.

    Skipping back a few seconds after fast-forwarding is a TiVo patented feature, hence it not being available on the 360, and obviously meaning it wont be available in the future. It's one of the many nice features missing from the 360 compared to the V6\TiVo.

    Pressing the right part of the circle jumps forward 30 second increments.

    Or just say skip 4 minutes on itv or 5 on Sky.  General ad break times

      The left and right arrow buttons either side of the OK button skip forward 30 seconds and back 10 seconds.

      To skip forwards/backwards 15 minutes in recordings - press MIC and say "go forward 15 minutes" or "go back 15 minutes". You can also say "fast forward 10 minutes" or whatever amount of time you want. 

      To avoid adverts on streamed & on demand say "skip forward three minutes" or "fast forward 3 minutes"

      If you press the fast forward button above the '3' key, you have 4 speeds depending on how many times you press the button.

      When fast forwarding press the TV button and that will switch off the fast forward arrows etc. For Stop press the back button or pause button, TV button also stops and puts you back to TV.
      To play back in slow motion press pause then Fast Forward

        Ok but still not as accurate as the old hand remote unfortunatly. I also find the buttons not so responsive and smaller/ fidely. I guess i will have to get used to them.
