Tivo Series2 SPS Codes

SPS stands for Select-Play-Select and are the only hacks available to Series2 users without opening up the unit. All SPS codes should be done while playing back a recorded program. All functions can be turned of by entering the code again. If you have entered the code correctly you should hear three system chimes.

• 30-Second Skip - (S-P-S-3-0-S) - Changes the Advance button on your remote into a 30-second skip button. Perfect for skipping commercials one at a time.
• Clock/Elapsed Time Indicator - (S-P-S-9-S) - Pops up a clock and an eapsed time display in the bottom-right corner of your TV screen.
• Speed Reader's Status Bar - (S-P-S-Pause-S) - Makes the status bar dissappear faster (in about half a second).
• Status Message Display - (S-P-S-InstantReplay-S) - Pops up on bottom-left of screen. It indicates the Input Type, the Channel (active in LiveTV mode only), the episode ID number, as assigned by Tivo's internal Media File System (MFS) database (LiveTV mode only), and the Mode (Completed or Recording).
