Unable to Forward While Recording

I am unable to fast forward when watching a program that is currently recording. This feature was working prior to the update. I have a Samsung TV. The model # is QN65S9ODDFXA.

I have tried deleting and reinstalling the app, as well as, hard restarting the TV.

I see that others with different TV brands/models are having this issue as well.

Thanks for the update. I know it’s frustrating to still be dealing with this after troubleshooting yesterday.

As an additional check, please make sure your TV and Xfinity Stream app are fully updated and compatible. You can confirm your TV’s model and current software version under Settings > Support > About This TV. (2018–2026 listed; 2017 no longer supported) You can also try signing out of the Xfinity Stream app and signing back in if you haven’t already.

Hello user_uhoksi! We appreciate you reaching out to our Xfinity Forum. My team is here to support you. I am sorry to hear you're also running into this issue on your end. For troubleshooting purposes, is this happening on all recordings or just particular ones?

Regarding the loss of our DVR control when watching in progress recordings, Has anyone received an actual update? Has anyone had it fixed or found a better workaround than the delete, Restart recording, recover process? I think Xfinity is not being open and honest with us. I can't help thinking Xfinity knows exactly what they have done and they are simply stonewalling the users. I noticed when the issue first cropped up that at least one of my browsers (Firefox) asked/forced me to accept a download of Google Windvine software which appears to be related to copyright issues. I would suspect that content providers have an interest in whether viewers are watching their programing and skipping commercials or watching only portions. Did Xfinity drop the ball here and is now hanging us out to dry.
