You can set subtitles to be either pemanently on or off by default via Settings> Accessibility> Subtitle options
[*]When Fast-Forwarding or Rewinding though a long programme, how do you jump by 15 minute increments to quickly get to (for example) the last quarter-of-an-hour of a two or three hour show? On the V6 you just tap the ">|" or "|<" buttons while winding.
Is there any way to stop the incredibly annoying action when pressing the >> or << buttons multiple times that it incrementally speeds up but then reverts back to slow winding? Currently to get to the fastest speed I just rapidly jab the >> button several times, and I certainly don't expect the scrubbing speed to drop back to very slow again if I press the button once too often. I found this dreadful logic really annoying when testing our friend's 360 remote.

Here are a couple of playback tips when using the navigational buttons which might be useful.

The left and right arrow buttons either side of the OK button in the navigation pad skip forward 30 seconds and back 10 seconds.

Ref the >>| or |<< video control buttons buttons.
When you hit those buttons you can speed through what your watching either x2, x6, x30 or x64 times. If you hold those buttons continuously then the video will keep playing as normal but a time bar and a thumbnail should appear as you speed through – let go when you get to the point you want.

To play back in slow motion press pause then Fast Forward

[*]When you are spooled back to watching an earlier point in a live program, how do we get back to the live broadcast again with a single action? I can't see a Stop button. In fact, the transport controls seem rather lacking all round.

To switch back to 'last channel viewed' - you can either press the TV button (above and to the right of the OK button) or the Back button.
