Every time I fast-forward, it jumps back to the beginning.

Every time I try to fast forward a tv channel, it jumps back to the place where I started watching it from. I have tried rebooting but it doesn't help.

On the main box.

Comedy Central and Animal Planet.

I don't know if it does it on any other channels

I've noticed this recently, for me it only happens on channels that use Sky's Adsmart system which includes Comedy Central and Animal Planet.

You can see a list of channels that use AdSmart half way down this page: https://www.adsmartfromsky.co.uk/content-and-channels/ the fault only ever seems to happen on these channels, so my theory is it's a bug with the system. Try testing rewind/fast forward etc on BBC or ITV and it should be fine.
