Is Scrubbing or Skipping Through Live or Recorded TV Possible?

[jkoyote 0]

First off, let me just say what a great program Media Browser is! After hearing about Microsoft dropping future development of WMC. I researched and tried all kinds of solutions, but MB is by far the best I have found. I'm currently using with a HD Homerun Dual Tuner and Server WMC for live tv. My only frustration is that I can't fast-forward or rewind during live or recorded tv. Have I missed a step or setting or is this just a limitation of the current version of MB or Server WMC? Does using Next PVR as the TV solution remedy this?

 

I appreciate any insight or suggestions, as I greatly miss this feature from my WMC days.

what are you using as your client for live tv? the web client?

I mainly use the web client via google chrome. I have also used the Windows 8.1 app as well.

Indeed, I'm seeing the same. I thought I remembered that with xbmc and server wmc you could scrub?

No, it will be the same for NextPVR....

This is not yet available in MB....

This feature seems to exist now, but not for every recorded program? Any idea what causes some to be processed including scenes, thumbs, and scrubbing while others do not?

 

FYI - I have commercials.xml files generated for ALL recorded programs, and cannot figure out why some are treated differently or don't recognize the xml file.
