Discovery+ Olympics catch up tip

[gomezz]

I am being very selective about what sports and events I am watching.  Last week was all about the Rugby Sevens and now concentrating on the athletics track events (I find field events a bit of a bore).

Worked out that by watching the non-broadcast live coverage via the app that it has event markers on the play bar timeline which makes it very easy to tab from one event of interest to the next. So look for the version of the coverage which does not have the E1/2 logo on it - the two are usually next to each other in the menu.

This is one case where these markers are actually useful without acting as spoilers as happens when used for goals, tries and wickets in coverage of other sports.

For some reason this only works in the app on my Chromecast dongle and does not work in the app on my Youview box (4000T) which doesn't show the play bar event markers. Can anyone explain why?
