You have a corrupt/broken/non-existent seektable. Start by running the 
optimize_mythdb.pl script.  Watch its output.  If you see that 
recordedseek was corrupt (and fixed by the script), you'll need to 
rebuild seektables with "mythcommflag --rebuild --all" (after which you 
may decide to flag commercials with "mythcommflag --all").

If you don't even seek recordedseek being scanned, your database upgrade 
failed (possibly becase of a corrupt recordedmarkup table).  Cleaning 
that up will be more involved (so, let me know if that's the case and 
I'll give you better instructions).

What's a TiVo?  (Just a joke.  I don't have any idea how a TiVo's remote 
works, though, so I can't help.)

Step 1--*before* upgrading--read the "What's new" (in your case--since 
you're upgrading from 0.18--for versions 0.19, 0.19.1, and 0.20):
http://mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Release_Notes_-_0.19#New_Features
http://mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Release_Notes_-_0.19.1
http://mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Release_Notes_-_0.20

Step 2--*after* upgrading, but *before* posting--read the FAQ:
http://mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Frequently_Asked_Questions#Q:_Where_have_the_options_for_the_FF.2FRW_jump_sizes_gone.3F__They.27re_not_where_they_used_to_be_in_the_Setup_menu.

The answer is in the 0.19 Release Notes (in the section to which I 
linked) and in the FAQ (specifically in response to the question to 
which I linked).  :)
