been experiencing this weird fast forward behaviour for several
versions now. I assume it must just be something we're doing wrong
because it's never changed since at least v0.28 and no one else
seems to be talking about it.
<br>
<br>
What happens is this: We have auto-skip commercials turned off.
When watching live tv, if we're delayed for more than a few
minutes, then hit fast-forward to manually skip thru some
commercials, 9 out of 10 times, we can skip thru a few
commercials but sometimes it will just jump forward to almost live
again (a few seconds behind live). I hope I explained that
correctly. Its not "consistent" but it happens frequently enough
to be a real nuisance, especially when our remote doesn't have
numbers allowing us to just jump back a certain number of minutes.
And also, the amount jumped is not a consistent amount of time, it
always just jumps to near live again. I believe the backend is
marking commercial breaks, and maybe there is some weirdness in
trying to jump forward without a correct number of commercial
breaks recorded, or some other setting about the length of
commercials, etc. I don't quite understand all of those settings,
and I don' think I've changed any from the defaults, other than to
disable commercial auto-skip.
