Restart Feature not showing on the Live Guide
I just received the new box (VIP5662W) and after installing it, the restart icons on the live guide is not showing. I also checked the Info for the show and clicked on Restart Show but its blank. (already rebooted the Router/PVR and all the wireless boxes).
It was available on the old box that was replaced. And I can also restart previously aired shows on TelusTV.com on my computer.
Nothing came out from phoning tech support.
Do you have any ideas/suggestions?

Hi,
Thanks. I've tried and the Tech support that I talked to recommended that we just Record the shows that we want to Restart.
This does not make sense if the Restart Feature is available for shows that previously aired up to 30hrs before, we should be able to restart those shows without recording.
Is the Telus software installed directly on the pvr box or getting the telus feed from the cloud? because if it is installed directly, there might be a way to update the PVR's software or firmware.

We can definitely pass this along to our Optik team for investigation. We'd need to gather some info from you. Feel free to send us a private message if you'd like to do that.
Hello,
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I've been to that page and checked all the suggestions listed. The Restart icon is not showing on the shows in the live guide and when i go to Program Info >> Restart Show, the list is blank. Also, I'm very sure that the channel is on that list (because i can see the restart icon for those channels on the telustvplus.com)
Snapshot below was taken 12:58 PM and the @10AMshows on Global and CTV2 has no Restart icon.
To compare, on the telustv.com from my desktop
Thank you.

We do have a page at https://www.telus.com/en/support/article/optik-restart that has troubleshooting steps as well as a current list of channels that currently support that feature. Have you tried those steps and ensured that the channel you're trying is in that list?
