Pause stream on PC?

I am unable to pause the stream on my PC.   I can stop it, but when I resume, it goes back to live TV 

Help?

No issues here with Win11 and either Chrome or Edge.

The only guess would be maybe an extension, blocker, etc. All these add-ons have known to have impacts on the PC version. Even VPN’s. Has it even worked correctly?

That is my guess too.  This is the first time I have tried the streaming feature. Usually I am watching on TV at home but we are on the road.  Not sure if that has anything to do with it.      

I did pull it up on my iPhone and got the pause feature to come up.   Who knows?

Traveling has nothing to do with it. I travel all the time in a RV. Never had the problem. Have you tried incognito mode?

Not sure how to engage that.

3 dots in the right-hand corner of your browser. Incognito disables most extensions etc. Makes a private session.

Gave that a shot.  Pulled up another game, still no pause control.

Well, it's something with your environment. We all use the same URL. No one else has reported an issue similar to yours.

Anytime. Only wish we could have figured the issue out.

Yeah - I like to synch up the TV broadcast with my teams’ home radio broadcast which is always behind the TV.    My team got trounced, so even though we didn’t figure it out, trying to problem-solve served as a nice distraction  😬
