@Floydianslip @Yes that is exactly my point. For a variety of reasons I like most I imagine cannot always sit down to watch a 'live' sports event when it first starts, so it may be just half an hour later, an hour later or longer.
Not that long ago there were posts on this forum that said you could only watch from the start within the first ten minutes and after that it could be as long as the next day before the full match became available.
The 'watch from the start' prompt does usually appear on most channels whenever they are selected. It usually functions fine (it did for me) but problems can occur if you pause the restarted stream for whatever reason (loo break/making a cup of tea etc) and return, only to find that the eco settings have kicked in and the stream has lost the point at which you paused it and reverted to the live stream.
It's inconsistent and unreliable in that respect, particularly when compared to pausing a recording of a live broadcast being saved to a hard drive. It's things like this which have led me to cancel Stream.
