Actually, I have that option enabled and it works fine as long as the
number you are entering is not a unique channel. If you wanted to jump
say 99 minutes ahead and didn't have channel 991, 992, etc., then you
would probably not get the chance to hit the jump button before the
autochange kicked in.
So basically, it works, but the immediate change will probably take
precedence in cases where they overlap.
