Ok Here's One For The Anoraks.....

If I watch netflix on my PC it has symbol bottom left to repeat the last 10 seconds, great for when you miss something. Is there an equivalent of that for when I'm watching through sky? The rewind is terribly designed. Thanks

How long since you renewed Sky? Since the newer boxes have different rewind versus the older boxes. The newer boxes have both a Rewind button

[Ellipsis]

Oh god, because I put a less than sign to show the rewind sign versus the left button, the rest of the post was removed - sorry. It was a good post!

I have a sky Q box

I hate the rewind on all platforms except Sky, so I’m interested in any answers.

snap rocky, prime is especially bad, why can't they just go back and forward like sky does they all are terrible except sky. That's the main reason I'm asking it's so simple on sky but miss something on the others and you end up miles back, useless. The 10 second rewind on the PC for netflix helps.

I am not sure if I am the right person to even attempt an answer but I have sky Q and use netflix through this way and can't see why you have a problem. There are arrows right and left each side of the pause button on the sky remote. Also the circle has buttons each side of it that do the same but at a different speed.
But maybe I don't understand your specific problem.

[ToraToraTora]

MrsLadybug, yes but they do not move the picture back and forth like sky does. They have a small window with the picture in it and it moves too fast. Yes you can go back and forth but it's very cumbersome compared to standard sky.

[MrsLadyBug]

Oh I see what you mean . It's not smooth, it moves in jumps.
Never really bothered me but I suppose it can be annoying for some.

Yes its not just each platform but also what de ice you watch it on. My smart TV is now quite old (about 5 years I think,definitely before 2020 lock down anyway..).the apps work differently on my tv, phone, laptop and the games console.ea h brand of smart tv works differently as well.
Seriously od I know kW the app works better on my laptop I will plug that into the tv rather than use the smart tv app..(mines an lg tv so quite basic!).

Just discovered that in netflix if you press the left arrow it jumps back 10 secs! then you can restart with the play key. In prime video you do the same but you don't have to restart with the play key. It jumps back 10 secs for each press. Hooray. That's the left arrow NOT the rewind key. It's the one on the left of the black circle in the middle NOT the one on the Silver ring.

Thanks. I'll give that a try. It'll be hard not hitting the rewind button, though.
