So im sure everyone has this ondemand plugin for bbc iplayer and itv player. I must say it does the job. BUT, lets say I watch a move till the middle, something disconnects, I open the programme up again and guess what? I have to start watching from the beginning.

Does anyone know how to fast forward on this app? because when I do press numbers or forward button it stops everything and crashes.

Thanks

use the numbers on remote 1 and 3 4 and 6 7 and 9. these will fast forward or rewind in jumps 1 and 3 is about 15 seconds forward or back 4 and 6 is about a minute and so on.
 
As well when you start ondemand press menu and you can change the Preferred Stream Quality to high or HD makes a difference in picture quality when streaming. that only if you had,nt sussed it out alreay just a tip. regards dubliner

Hi

I tried that but it doesnt work. Have you tried it yourself? - I mean on tsmedia those numbers work like a charm, but not ondemand. Please let me know if you've tried and tested, that way I need to really find out whats going on.

P.S. Using VIX Helios, latest with latest drivers etc.

Hi will have a play and see what the score is..basically you want to know how if possible can you fast forward and rewind whilst playing media/catchup using ondemand..

Yes. I find that when I try to use forward on remote, or numbers to fast forward, it stops streaming completely. I have to stop, get out of it and go back to the video and start from the beginning.

On the other hand, TSmedia I can use numbers to fast forward, works fine.

I as far as I know the ondemand on vix does not have ff fr or pause on the other hand on xbmc ff fr pause work so i use my raspberry pi with xbmc because it also has 4OD as well

Sounds about right. Can you elaborate on what XBMC is and raspberry pi?

Thanks.
 
XBMC is a media player for Linux or windows it started out as media player for Xbox but has evolved
It can be modified with addons just search xbmc
A Raspberry pi is a very small form computer about £30 now mine is used to download films and TV and is connected to my vu with samba

I have reverted to helios 016 and after removing and then re-installing on demand it works again but still no fast forward

yep i tried everything..ondemand just freezes if you try any FF/RW using buttons or numbers keys.
and this is on latest Vix Helios image on genuine solo2.
