Playback feature is full of bugs
- doesn’t start over consistently when a recording is still ongoing ruining the game by all of a sudden starting at the end
- doesn’t handle overtime playback properly
- hopeless to fast forward more than a minute or so
- doesn’t hold the pause on a recorded game. All of a sudden starts up again by itself.
- doesn’t pause a live game for more than a couple of mins even if recording is started
This is hopeless. Wonder if fuboTV is any any better.

Which streaming device are you using? The "won't pause" sounds like FireTV, which last time I checked still didn't have pause support added. Your comment about "pause even if a recording is started" implies you think that the live stream and the recording are "connected" (as it is in some systems). That isn't the case - in the DirecTV Stream system (right now, anyway), the recording is distinct, and if you want to see the recording (even while it is still recording), you need to go to the DVR recording list and play it from there. That is necessary on FireTV devices to get pause functionality. On the other devices (well, the ones I've used) it isn't necessary to record to be able to pause (and rewind/fast forward), but the "window" for this is 1 hour, so if you want an entire game (I guess depending on the type of game) you may still need to record.
