DVR I click forward but it will jump to the beginning of the recording?!

DVR: I click forward but it will jump to the beginning of the recording?! 

There has been a dozen threads about this issue over years and instead of fixing the problem which continues to frustrate customers we receive the same old “have you tried…” time after time.  Then they closed the thread instead of addressing this infuriating DVR BUG.

COMCAST what we want to know is; has any team been assigned to fix this bug?  Yes, it’s a “bug” and no amount of “try this” or “reboot” will resolve this BUG.

Like I said in another thread, this happens all the time when we are forced to watch the Cloud NFL recordings (even though I have a hard drive DVR)

these last 2 years.

I have been having the exact same problem.  Very frustrating when watching football games.  When I try and get back to the same spot, it occasionally goes to the end of the game, NOT good.
