Blue Button Equivalent on MCE Remote?

[zed]

I have a Microsoft 2005 model 2 remote which doesn't have the colored buttons at the bottom. Is there any equivalent on that remote to the blue button on the 2A model...without using HIP? I'd like to be able to display the timeline while watching recordings.

I dont know what a 2A model is, but if there isnt coloured buttons on the remote, then no there isnt an equivalent key.

OK...I kinda figured that was the case.

According to the wiki (http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Hardware/MCERemotes) the 2A is the one with the colored buttons. I have the plain old version 2. That's probably why I got it cheap .

Is the blue button the only way to make the timeline show while watching a recording?

You could probably also press pause.

Yep, that does it.

Doh! I shoulda thought of that...

Sorry for the stoopid question...
