Recordings

Just had to get a new box. Now when I record it will not let me fast forward. I need to know what’s going on.

Most likely you are recording the On Demand version and not the sat channel version.

Double check the recording to see what channel it recorded from. Many networks disable FF/REW for their On Demand content (a practice I despise).

If it is not able to FF/REW on something recorded from a normal satellite channel, that is a technical issue. In this case try resetting the box with the red button (also main Genie if it is a Client).
