Directv2PC fastforwarding problems

[FredZ]

Does anyone else have problems trying to use fastforwarding on their PC with directv2pc? If I am watching a show on my pc and I try to fastforward past commercials, it will begin to fastforward and then the video will just freeze (the audio continues to advance). I have to stop playback and then hit resume to continue playback. Does anyone know of a solution for this?

I just dusted off this app and looked to see.
"Nope", I can FF up to 4x and still see the video update.
I normally use the Cntl K to skip through commercials.

More than likely this is a network latency issue, and one of the reasons DECA is the only networking type that will be supported.

Since the audio is still streaming, I'd tend to think it was on the PC end and how well it processes the video.
How could audio stream through but not the video? :confused:

I get these too. Makes DirecTVtoPC pretty much unusable for me. MRV works fine in my house and it uses the same network so I think DirecTVtoPC is just buggy. This is also happens on a very new laptop.

I have this problem on SD channels. I usually just click my mouse on the time bar, usually get me pretty close.
