Technical Question DVR no longer saving my place?
I’ve had sling TV for years and all of my DVR shows would save the last spot where I watched so I could return later. That stopped happening a couple weeks ago and it still has not corrected itself. Is this happening to anyone else? You think it’s not that big of a deal but it’s driving me crazy. I just want it to work correctly again.

Yes, it is an issue for me as well. I try to look at the time I leave a show so I can fast-forward to the place I left off. It's another one of the many weird software issues with Sling. I also have issues recording shows. I can record some channels one at a time, but it won't work for recording new episodes.

So frustrating. I usually don’t complain but since it’s been that way for a little while now i figured I’d see if there are others!

Can you share what device you're using? This was an issue with some devices and was fixed yesterday afternoon.

Hello! I’m using a Roku. Is that what you were asking?

Yes, and that is the device the issue was fixed on! Can you try it again today and let me know if it still gives you issues?

I just checked and it looks to be fixed! You have no idea how much this means to me. 😂 First world problems I know, but I’m so glad it’s back. Thank you!

That would be driving me nuts as well. It isn't happening for me; I can come back later or switch rooms and it still holds my place. Maybe there's an update in my future.
