You have two factors involved. First, the fast forward/rewind has a few kinks and more importantly wireless connections are giving shaky playback if at all.

Playback is seamless on the wireless network until described operation is performed !
Thanks Again...

I'm having the same fast forward problem.  When you say it has a few kinks, is there some way to work them out?

You're responding to a thread that is 18 months old and involved a not recommended wireless BETA system.  So, there are any number of variables here, so best to start your own new thread using the "Create New Post" button on the main forum page. Your problem may very well be different from the original poster's. With a new thread you can provide more information about your equipment, location, and troubleshooting you've tried so far. And this forum software makes it difficult to track or respond to folks that add onto someone else's thread
