smart resume don't work

my smart resume worked just fine until july 12, 2023 when my whole system went down and they replaced my splitter.  after that when you fast foward commercials it stops on the blue bar, but there are 3 more commercials before the program starts.  this happens now on all channels.  had 2 techs out and say that's just how it works or say just stop fast resume!  if you watch previous recorded programs (before july 12) they work like they're supposed to, smart resume works.  this is very frustrating and if i don't get a solution soon, i'm writing to headquarters.

thanks for helping.  i tried almost everything i could think of.  i rebooted dvr, stop/start smart resume, cancelled all recordings and reprogramed them.  one of my programs worked right for 3 days and then it was back to not working again.  i still think this problem has gone on way to long without a resolution.  why does it work for some users?

@XfinityKrista​ mine used to work just fine until they replaced my splitter.  so now when they give you bull that there are so many different routers that they all don't work the same.  mine was fine for years until this splitter problem.  i wish i could switch to at&t.  i'll have to check them out.  plus the rates have all gone up so i had to lower internet speed and get less channels for the same price i was paying in december.  don't get me started on trying to get a live person on the phone.  we'd be here for hours!~

I assume they are charging a hefty premium to the companies/organizations whose advertisements run when not-so-smart resume resumes.
