Android Live Channels Fast Forward Speed

by flynreelow

Using an app that integrates great with Android Live TV Channels. The only drawback I have found is that the FF speed is very slow. Even at the highest x5 Speed, it only advances the video 8-9 seconds.

Can this be changed from the app developer, or is this locked into the Android Live TV Channels api?

Thanks!

It's app specific. Live Channels isn't a player, all that functionality comes from the app associated with the channel source; Live Channels is just a nicely thened container for the app to render into. In other words, pressing fast forward does nothing more than send a message to the app asking it to play faster.

I'm not sure but I'm curious what app you're using?

I can't figure out how you fast forward live tv in the first place.
