Having the same exact problem with my new AV500, except that the fast forward
and rewind did work with one of the 4 shows (recorded tv) I synced. The only
difference is that the show that did work was recorded at BEST quality and
the other 3 were recorded at GOOD quality.
Also, when I copied the 3 converted shows back to my desktop to test with
Media Player 10, the rewind and fast forward didn't work. Hmmmmm...
Any help would be appreciated!
