Stop Button

Why on earth has SKY neglected to place a STOP button on the SKY Q Remote so you can stop a recording you are watching during playback?

hi @1stDog you can.

It is the Dismiss/Back button (the 3 sided square with an arrow pointing left). I know it is not obvious for those coming from SKY + with separate Stop buttton

There has been an Issue which I am not sure is fixed or not where sometimes it would back up completely out rather than the one step to the recordings menu

Of course there is the combned play/pause button for just pausing recordings.

BTW as an aside if you are new to SKY Q Voice control in recordings is also very useful :

handy controls are :
Skip nn minutes
Go To nn minutes
Back nn minutes

You can use hours, minutes & seconds or mix e.g. Go to 1hour 15 minutes

Skip nn minutes is very handy for adverts and you get used to the length on regular used channels (Many are around the 4 minute mark)

You can also say Go To Start

Voice control in general is very useful

Agreed. On balance....Probably the one truely worthwhile advance made over sky plus. Certainly the best voice command I've encountered
