And, if not, there has been a change, but it's "transparent" to the user 
(meaning most people don't realize they now have a new capability):  
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/changeset/6501 .

I'm guessing you're using a PVR-350 because it's unlikely that you've 
accidentally changed a bunch of settings you didn't know exist 
(FFRewSpeed[2-7] or whatever) when there's no GUI for changing the 
control, but I thought I would mention this for completeness.
