Fast Forward
Is there any sign of a fix for the glitch in Fast Forward where you see "into the future" i.e. you think you've reached the point you want to watch but if you Play you are still ages away from that point. Something to do with new compression levels on some channels I believe?
:dunce: |
Re: Fast Forward
Yes, new software that includes a fix for this is currently in pilot with some customers, and will be rolled out nationally when the pilot is complete.

Re: Fast Forward
I've got quite used to it actually, commercial breaks blitzed in a few seconds.
I recently watched an old recording and was disappointed when it took a lot longer to get through those breaks |

It can be both useful and annoying at the same time.
A good option would be to have it as an option with the speed selections. |
Re: Fast Forward
I hope they keep the fast forward. Once used to it, I find it a big improvement. Playing back programmes recorded under the previous system is a big anti-climax

A better option would be to be able to specify the start/resumption point in minutes. |

You can see their point, though. The commercials pay for the content, so advertisers are not getting what they pay for when people record and fast forward through the breaks. In the end, this should be resolved when scheduled TV is eventually withdrawn from our screens. At that point, I would expect two versions of the players that replace them. One would be free with unskippable adverts and the other with a subscription and no commercials. I could live with that. |

Re: Fast Forward
Does anyone know if the Channel 4 on-demand (All 4?) service still has un-skippable ads? I remember watching this once and have avoided it ever since because of this.

Not sure if this is the same for the catch up version on Virgin, though. |

Re: Fast Forward
That's pretty much as I feared. Unless I'm missing something it's not even possible to channel-hop during the ads.

Re: Fast Forward
Does the V6 use the same version of All4 that Youview does?
