Is there a better way?

When playing, I hit the center of the "big button" on the remote, which freezes the playback. Then I swipe to the right and hit the button again. Sometimes it works, but not consistently.

For shorter "skips" I hit the right side of that button. It eventually skips about 10 seconds, but with the delay, it's only 6 or 7 seconds. And, again, it doesn't work every time.

Apple needs to develop a better remote that works more like a DVR. Or is the problem with the content provider, in my case, MLB.tv?

Your tap and swipe is how I do it, but for me it's pretty consistent. I haven't tried the second method. And the inconsistency could be MLB.tv. I found it erratic sometimes.
