I dont belive this is licensing it has been happeing on every program TSN and all their channels?
This is a policy of that TSN(aka Bell) that I belive was implemented to stop recorded and live programming form fast forwarding.
TSN has told me this is a Telus issue and they sent me a web page for Telus help.
If this is the case what is the point of a PVR? And if TSN can get away with this then where does it stop?
But thanks for the reply.

I just recorded CFL playoffs in 30 on TSN1. I have no issues fast-forwarding the program.
