This one sent in by electron84 does work as I have done it too. Just a note though NEXT is shown incorrectly in the manual (page 8) fast fwd/backwd (18) and previous\next (7)
should be swapped with each other. just go by the traditional symbols which are correct! (but then you all knew that didn`t you)

The Hack posted by WAVY works, I tried all of the posted hacks none worked, if you do as WAVY says and use the correct NEXT button it works for sure.
