Video Position - Not Resetting Between Videos

Happened twice so far. If I watch a video in the Video Library, for example, 10 minutes into a 30 minute show then go to another.

When I pull up the new video it starts at the same video position I bailed out on the first video.

I then have to go to the beginning. I have an Apple TV so the only way I have found to do this is to go left 30 seconds at a time. It takes forever.

Is this known?

Is there a better way to start the video from the beginning?

Appreciate you!

We haven't received any outage reports for this, so it likely comes down to an app cache glitch or an outdated system version, @deadfwd. To fix it, try force-closing the DIRECTV app, updating your Apple TV software, or doing a quick uninstall and reinstall. As a shortcut, try using your remote's microphone button and saying "Restart from the beginning!"
