fast forward has been disabled by the broadcaster

[Foghorn]

Why am I getting this message on my live tv as well as my PVR recorded programs? 

On live tv I can’t go back to rewatch a play without this message  “fast forward has been disabled by the broadcaster“

TSN has told me this is a Telus issue? So who is correct?

[FuzzyLogic]

I believe this is related to the content and not necessarily the broadcaster. This has been reported on both Telus and Rogers devices and typically has to do with licensing for the show in question.

I mostly notice this on Global live and recorded. 

Live when I restart cannot fast forward and recorded, no fast forward from the start. Made worse by the 2-3 minutes at the beginning watching the end of the last show.

I haven't experienced this on any recorded show. I've only seen it if I restart a show from the guide or rewind a live show. That is the expected behavior based on most licensing agreements with the content owners.
