using remote to fast forward

Although I hate Comcast, the advantage is that when watching sports I can fast forward in small increments and see the action as I do it.  So, for example, in a sporting event, I can fast forward through free throws and time outs or during baseball games during slow parts and know exactly when to hit play again.  Most streaming services seem to skip forward in increments so I can't do that.  What is the remote fast forwarding like with your service?

Hi, ritanay. Our Gemini Voice Remote allows you to fast-forward through most of your programs. With multi-press, it can play at up to 4x speed. Press and hold to skip to the end.

What if I just hit fast forward one time - does it allow me to see what I'm fast forwarding through or does it skip forward a certain number of seconds? Thanks!

Pressing the Fast-Forward button once will skip the video for 30 seconds, and pressing the Replay button will take you back 6 seconds. Claudine, DIRECTV Community Specialist
