TiVoHD fast forward bug

**Skolink** · 04-03-2010, 09:39 AM

Has anyone else noticed a bug where when you press FF for the third time (to go full speed), it jumps to the end of the recording? It has happened a few times, and mostly seems to happen while the show being watched is still recording.
We have never seen this behaviour on the Series1 in 5 years.
I haven't contacted TiVo support yet.

I havent had that happen but I have noticed that rewind seems to be jerky

Nope - no issues at my end either....

I take that back - happened a couple of times now. Doesn't just seem to be just on the third FF - had it on two...

One thing I have noticed is that FF (and REW) are virtually useless when playing back recorded radio channels.

Glad to hear it's not just us. Have finally submitted a bug report to them.

It's been some time since I last checked the forum....

This bug has affected me, too -- also, when fast-forwarding through a large amount of time, I have seen it skip to the end when it passes a 'tick'. It doesn't do this every time, though. Hope this can be solved in a forthcoming update.

I have also seen this bug a few times and for me anyway, appears to only appear when 3xFFW is used for a while on shows currently being recorded.

You're quite right it was when 3xFF was going -- I cant remember checking if the shows in question were being recorded at the time but its quite likely they were. I'll have to test this out, wonder if it is a bug in the software or a deliberate feature?
