Pause; Continue watching; Fast-forward - Jumps back to point it was paused

We have a problem watching "live" ITV (not sure about other channels at the moment).

 

For the last day or so, if we have a programme paused; continue watching; and then attempt to fast forward, the programme jumps back to the point we originally paused.

 

I've tried software upgrade; resetting; and factory reset but it is still happening

Hi there, ITV is a third party app so it's not owned or managed by NOWTV can you check the other apps or NOWTV passes to see if they are doing the same thing so we can see if it's just the ITV app thanks

Thnks Nadine - just to clarify, this isn't using the ITV Hub but watching ITV as part of Freeview - but I will try other channels and see if the behaviour is repeated

OK so NOWTV don't own or manage the freeview channels either so we recommend that you get in touch with Digital UK - wwwdigitaluk.co.uk who can check for outages in your area and everything else regarding freeview 

 

hope this helps!

Thanks - I'll get on that now... I'll post back on here if they provide any answers, just in case anyone else has the same problem.

HI @Anonymous User

 

I have just checked my smart box firmware version 7.7.3 and paused ITV HD Freeview live TV and my box seems to be working fine.

 

Would have suggested maybe a factory reset, but reading your first post that you have already tried this, not sure what else to suggest Smiley Sad

I have the same issue since my box updated to 7.7.3.  Given that Digital UK don't own or manage your software updates or the pause, fast-forward and rewind functions on your box, then perhaps you could fix the issue you have introduced with the software update that you own and manage, but clearly don’t test properly.

I’m also having the same problem. It doesn’t happen on any of the apps, it’s when watching live TV. When you pause, for no matter how long, and then fast forward to the point you want, it skips back to where you originally paused. It relates both to freeview and Now TV channels, doesn’t seem to impact the apps. It started doing it in the past week or so. Some support on the matter would be most welcome
