30-Second Skip Stopped Working

Crisis time! Years ago, I learned how to reprogram the Xfinity remotes to make the Page Up and Page Down buttons yield 30-second skips instead of the default 5-minute skips (exit-exit-exit-0030). Tonight, this is no longer working. I have tried reprogramming multiple times with this sequence and have tried with both the older and newer models of remote. I did recently perform a System Refresh with my X1 box trying to restore a flaky Netflix app. How do I restore this useful option?

And just like that, crisis averted. I think I got my remotes working properly again. I tried manually forcing my remote back to the 5-minute default even though it was already doing that (exit-exit-exit 0500), testing, then programming again for the 30-second option (exit-exit-exit 0030). ow it is giving a 30-second skip again, and the correction is even working with the other older remote without having to reprogram each of them.
