    I have noticed that the fast forward during playback of recordings is playing up.  When adverts start I press right arrow twice and it should forward 240 seconds  however now it just returns to the start of the recording which is rather annoying. This only started about two weeks ago. I have the latest firmware and fast forward set to 240 sec.

    Anyone else noticed this problem?

    Are you pressing the right buttons. The forward and reverse skip buttons are left and right of OK ?

    Not noticed that flaw, though we have 30sec programmed in so perhaps the longer skip that you use is the root cause?

    One feature I like is that if you press “up” (is it once, or twice, can’t remember!) you get thumbnails of the programme, and can then scroll forward until the right point in the recording appears. Makes timing ad breaks work particularly well.

    -15 and +120 works fine for me.

    I too have had this issue, not on every recording but say on every 3rd on average bloody annoying.

    Were these completed recordings or ones currently recording ? Ie are you chasing playback recordings currently still being recorded ?

    These were complete recordings and at the start of adverts press FF and it goes back to the start. I have noticed if you press the off button then restart it appears to work. Happened with Marcella and C5 The Drowning last night.

    The fast forward button is above the square stop button. The button to the right of OK is the forward skip button. The amount forward it skips is user set.

    Freeview Play – settings – record and share – skip forward time. The button to the left of OK is backwards skip also user set Instant replay time just above the above option.

    It was 240 but I reduced to 120 last night before watching the recordings and still had the problem. I turned the box off and on again it then worked correctly

    I have the same problem although I only noticed it after a firmware update a couple of months ago. I haven’t modified my skip settings, still at the defaults.

    It’s an annoying bug which we get fairly frequently when using the skip forward button to go through advert breaks in the F1 coverage. Seems that after using skip (even just one skip ie. 15 seconds), the playback resumes at the point where it was the last time I finished skipping. Usually at the end of the previous round of adverts.

    It either happens every time when watching a recording, or not at all. So it’s intermittent, but if it affects playback, it happens every time we skip during that playback session.

    I have also noticed the same issues where skipping forward during playback sometimes does not remember the current watched position ie: skipping forward reverts to the start or to a position that has already been viewed.

    Aura with latest firmware software, only record HD channels, CH5 HD seems to be the worst affected channel.

    Skipped playback settings – back -15 secs forward + 60 secs.

    Funny enough I’m set at 240 secs skip forward and it all seems to work ok, has done for a while.
