Playlist contents disappeared and ‘Continue Watching’ not showing

[Matt1579]

Also having the same issue. It started about a week ago now. The 'recently watched' only shows Netflix shows and nothing else. The continue watching row on the UI has completely disappeared. So if I want to watch a tv show episode I have to locate the correct episode I was on and then have to fast forward to where I was last. Which means I have to pause throughout to watch the ads. Very frustrating!

Hi @Matt1579 and welcome to the forum.  Yes, it certainly can be frustrating.  Although I have not had the current issue I have had it in the past.  If you look at Post 14 above you you will see Sky are aware and are working on a solution.

Hi @Sussex-Stitcher @Matt1579 @ChrisBarnes1981 @Wiggins123 @martino1 

Our engineers have been investigating the problem and we require some further information.

If you are still seeing the problem, can you provide the following information, please?

• Where does the Playlist problem happen? ie there's no option on the homepage or when you select the homepage icon, it doesn't display anything
• Do you see any error messages?
• Can you try the service now and post back the date/time that you've tried, for the logs to be checked?
• If you're having Continue Watching problems, what happens? ie the rail isn't there, or you can't play the content from the rail
• Are you having problems watching Live TV, On Demand, or using Apps? If so, which and what happens?

Thanks in advance, it's appreciated 🙂

I'm going to mark this post as the current answer, so that everyone has the most up-to-date information.

Playlist issue has stopped now.  Now my box is just randomly freezing, total dead freeze no function nothing at all.  Does it mid stream sometimes and sometimes just on the homepage.

Further information needed. Which shows in particular are you having trouble adding to your playlist?

[Hentie]

I can add stuff to the playlist. I can add it to a profile. But sometimes, randomly, the playlist just disappears. In other words, the shows I added are gone, and the playlist is cleared. The profiles are still there, but no shows.
That's the one problem that happens infrequently and randomly for me. 

The other playlist problem(on demand):  I am watching The Rookie from scratch, and if I stop watching and come back later, then I can continue where I left off (that is if the Sky Stream puck has not powered off). If I watched the previous night, and I turn it on again in  the morning, it does not show me where I can continue, it only shows me the latest episode. So the rail is there, it just shows me Continue with the latest episode selected. It's as if it is saving the last watched state in static memory, and that is lost when the device is powered down (manually or automatically). The frequency of this: every time the device is powered down it loses the last watched state.

There are no error messages. Just an absence of working functionality
