Recording

Only recently had Sky Q installed but noticed when recording coronation street, when I come to watch it I have to rewind it first, but not had this on other programs. I know it not life threatening but a bit annoying. Any ideas?

@Female+abroad

If you've had the TV on channel 103 the Sky box will have assume you've watched the programme to the point you are at (if that makes sense).

hi @Female+abroad

This can happen if you are channel hoppng and visit the channel whilst it is recording (thus making the system think you have reached that point) - even if only briefly

If this is the case you should see a 'Watch from Start' button below the recording in the recordings episode listing

BTW voice control in recordings is very useful :- handy controls are :

Go To Start

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)

Voice control in general is very useful - see

Hi @Female+abroad When it is recording, if you tune to that channel (even for a second) it will assume that you have watched it up to that point. No need to rewind, simply take the Watch from start option.
