Tried on demand for the first time on the TVDrive/V+HD. Nice system, and decent DVD-quality feed.

However, you can't fast forward at more than roughly 2x, and when you stop viewing it, you have to restart from the beginning. For the system to compete with DVD rental (which I assume at Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£3.50 a pop), I must be able to stop the film, and start again later from roughly the same point. Remember VHS?

At the very least, fast forward should be faster.

Am I missing something obvious?
