I always copy the relevant lines for kGreen and kYellow (near the end of 
menu.c), rename them to k1 and k3, and change the delay to 10 s, leaving 
Green and Yellow to stay as 1 min skip.

The majority of advert breaks in the UK (on terrestrial channels) seem to be 
about 4 minutes (I've got another key set to skip 4 minutes forwards...) but 
some are +/- 10 or 20 s and being able to skip 10 s is very handy for me.

Cheers,

Laz
