Unable to restart or resume while watching a recording in the stream app

I start watching a recorded show and stop watching it. I go back to finish it and press watch. A window comes up for only a moment that says “Resume/Restart” and disappears quickly. I am unable to choose either options. This occurs with a recording that is complete as well as recordings that are still in process of being recorded. I restart the app but the problem remains. I am using the stream app on an iPad Pro. I don’t see the issue on my iphone.

Re-installing the app seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks.

Hey there, @Jonoco, thanks for reaching out through Xfinity Forums! I can definitely see how the issue with your Xfinity Stream app would be frustrating when you are trying to resume a program! We are here to help! Have you tried uninstalling and re-installing the app to see if that helps?

Thank you so much for trying that troubleshooting step! Have you made sure that everything is up to date with your current iPad and the app? Also, are you noticing the issue with specific channels and programs, or is it happening on every channel?

My iPad and apps are fully up to date. It happens on all recordings. If I stop before I am finished, I cannot resume nor restart the show.

I am having the identical problem. Solving it through a private message does not help the rest of the community. Hoping you can share a solution applicable to the rest of us experiencing the same issue.

In case it helps, I have the exact same issue on an iPad 11-in. Pro with everything up to date. It does NOT happen on my iPhone 11 Pro (also up to date), including when watching the exact same recordings the iPad couldn't resume.

Welcome to our community forum, @user_e2af23! I love using the Stream app so I want to make sure you can enjoy it as well :). Is your iPad Pro up to date? Are you able to view your recordings from your cable box?

I am having this problem on my desktop computer. It works on some shows and some not. I was just watching an episode of a show, I paused it and came back and it had went to the previous screen with all of my programs listed and then it wouldn't let me play it. When I move the cursor over the options of the TV show, only record option lights up, resume and play do not.

I just fixed it myself. I Google it and found an option to try to clear my cache and it fixed the problem... At least for now. Hopefully this works and may help someone else out.
