Re: No more fast forwarding through the adverts for ITV recordings in IP mode

Thank you so much for explaining. All I need to do now is steel myself to lose my recordings and watch list when I reset 😬
Annoying as I asked installer to do it via aerial in first place but he couldn't get it to work that way

Only if you watch via ITVX (where it auto skips) but you still see them on recordings

How do you change back to aerial mode, please?

Agreed. Renders the idea of paying BT for the box as pointless...

Re: No more fast forwarding through the adverts for ITV recordings in IP mode

Agreed. Being forced to watch an advert (or at least not able to skip it) does not make me want to buy into what they're selling. I will ignore it, or even make a point of definitely NEVER buying that brand.

Re: No more fast forwarding through the adverts for ITV recordings in IP mode

Had a new roof installed last spring and, as I intended to go internet  mode, told the roofer to chuck the aerial in the skip. I suppose I could go back and have an aerial installed but that will cost me so I'll just stop recording any itv programmes. I gave up watching live itv years ago because of adverts and am not going back now.

A big thanks to the more ons who made this decision.

Re: No more fast forwarding through the adverts for ITV recordings in IP mode

I have an aerial, but it's only Freeview lite in my area. I've solved that by also having a satellite dish which provides all the Freeview channels - renamed as Freesat.
I can record programmes on both systems and this always allows me to skip through adverts.
But I guess I should be grateful that a lot of people have now taken to getting their TV via their broadband link - otherwise my Freeview and Freesat recordings would probably have been altered somehow to prevent my advert skipping!

Current expectations are that Freesat will stop broadcasting via satellite by 2028 (as will Sky), with Freeview closing by 2030.

Enjoy it while you can, everything will be coming down your broadband pipe eventually.

" I gave up watching live itv years ago because of adverts and am not going back now."

Same here. Not been forced to watch ads for stuff I neither want nor 'need'...
