<div>Michael,</div>

<div>I experienced the exact same ffwd/rwd problem for a while... I came upon a fix in the archives that was pretty peculiar, but it does work. Check to see if your /etc/localtime file is a link or an actual file. If it's a file, then delete it, link it with the proper file in /usr/share/zoneinfo directory. Use the following commands:
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>rm /etc/localtime</div>
<div>ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT /etc/localtime</div>
<div> </div>
<div>obviously substitute the "EST5EDT" with whatever timezone you are actually in. I haven't been able to find why this works, but it definately does for me.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>As for the commercial skip... I have also noticed some incosistencies in what is a commercial and what is actual programming as well, and do not enable skipping anymore.</div>
