New Digital TV Boxes and IGMP Proxy
Hello, this is a question for fellow home nerds and any telus reps looking at the forum. I have a Unifi Dream Machine pro router in my house and take pride in managing my own network. I'm able to co...

Received my new boxes yesterday and proceeded to hook them up in place of the older ones. I initially used the same VLAN ports and had no issues with viewing television.
I have now just moved 2 of them to my normal home VLAN with IGMP Snooping turned on and my IGMP Proxy disabled. I am happy to report zero issues.
These are just nice android TV boxes with a Telus TV+ App! Thank you Telus for modernizing!
Now the only thing I miss is being able to record what I just watched. đ If my tv was on a news program and I caught a story I want my wife to see, I could push record and it would start from when I tuned to that channel. Now it only starts the moment I push record... Minor thing, but so far my only complaint!

Hi dolatyler, in this case, the recording function is working as expected; it will only record the point where you instruct it to do so if a schedule has not been set previously! That said, a lot of our channels have the restart functionality where you can restart the live stream from the beginning. Please keep in mind that you won't be able to fast-forward when you restart the stream, but you can jump back to the live point by refreshing the feed.

Great to hear! As for the recording issue, Optik-Kate would you have any insight?
