@exkclamation Philo. Even if you pause live TV, it won’t let you skip those ads

@samhenrigold UGH, how awful 😠 Thanks for the heads-up, and hope you can find a workaround for it...

@samhenrigold @exkclamation that was the whole selling point of a DVR. 😭

@schmegs yeah. i was out of town for two weeks, when i got back it had a little software update dot next to the icon and it was showing this new behavior

@samhenrigold They broke the swipe-to-fast-forward method (which was by far my favorite of any of the services I've tried), but you can click the "buttons" on the sides of the touch circle to fast forward still. Definitely not as elegant, but it works for now. Hopefully they'll fix the old way…

@schmegs huh, not working for me. whenever i hit an ad break, i get that little ⏩ with a strike through in the upper corner and the only options i have are pause or jump to live

@samhenrigold I had that with the first update that broke it, but the second update worked. Maybe you have another update available?
