Any one else having problems with skip?

[Paulp33]

Has anyone else been having problems with the skip function in the last two versions? I have the skip set to skip forwards or backwards 10 seconds with a button press but when the skip backwards button is pressed it often skips forward a second or two and I'm not confident that the number + skip is going in the right direction by the right amount consistently.

Some users have report odd skip sizes on files that were still growing/recording. Are your files still growing?

[Paulp33]

I don't think so, I know that if I watch files that are recording I have all sorts of stability issues so I tend to avoid doing that. It just occurred to me that it might only be channel seven files (which cause a crash when FF/RW and have the funny length GOPs), I'll check that out.

yeah, i'm having the same issue. skip back and skip forward don't seem to behave at all consistently, so i have come to refrain from doing that. <n> (a number) then <skip forward> correctly jumps ahead n minutes. i've only had my MVP since the latest release (.9010) so i can't comment on whether this is new behavior.

oh, and i experience this on files that are currently recording (growing) as well as ones that have finished recording entirely.
