Having an issue where a playback jumps forward by several minutes. Even up to 15 minutes. NOT a commercial skip. And it will not let me rewind. Pushing the back button just flashes and it doesn't go back.
Not entirely sure on this, but it seems like it happens when 2 recordings were being made at the same time.
Server running on MAC. Playing back on Apple TV.
Possibly the stream was interrupted while recording. Check the logs from the admin page. If nothing shows up there, then try playing the file directly from disk.
It usually shows if there was an interruption. It shows the total length of the recording to be correct, in this case an hour.
But I should still be able to go backwards or rewind. And once it skips I can't do that.
I've seen the same when my antenna was not bringing a channel in well for the HD HomeRun. If I recall signal quality was lower than other recordings. This issue did not show a red explanation for the recording. As this was for PBD and I get 3 PBS stations, I blocked the one that had the weaker signal and all has been good since.
One thing you can try is to use the feature in Channels DVR to fix the timestamps.
There is no guarantee that it will fix your problem but it might.
Before you do it, make a copy of that recording file and save it in a safe location in case you need to restore it later.
Find that damaged recording on the Channels DVR server page and click on the gear icon for it. In the drop-down menu that opens, click on Fix Video Timestamps.
This action is irreversible and it modifies the original file.
If that doesn't fix the issue, you can always restore the original file from the copy you made earlier.
