ProgDVB for IPTV use

Good evening all,
I recently started to make use of a paid IPTV service and firstly installed Kodi on my MiBox Android TV box, but evenyually found Prog TV for Android, which led me to explore ProgDVB.
Firstly I think ProgTV is brilliant and with a few changes could be untouchable.
However, my question is regarding ProgDVB.
I installed this to see if I can set it up on my PC to then set Prog TV for Android up to connect to my PC. However when I used ProgDVB to watch live TV I noticed that the "live stream" jumps often back a few seconds and then plays that section of the stream again.
This happens often and also means if you record something that it shows on there as well. I currently have ProgDVB set up to use 2GBs of on my hard drive, which is actually an SSD drive.
Is there something I can set in ProgDVB to try and solve this jumping back? Or is using ProgTV a better option to use on my windows PC?
Many thnx in advance.

Hi,
I'm currently evaluating ProgDVB + ProgTV Professional on a Win 10 PC to be used exclusively for an IPTV subscription and I have EXACTLY the same issue. When I start a stream all is good but it will then skip back about 20 seconds or so and re show the stream from there. It can do this several times over a period of a couple of hours (typically watching a football match) and the end result is that by the end of the game the stream is up to 3 minutes behind where the stream should be.
I have a multi user account with my IPTV provider so I've started the same stream on ProgDVB + ProgTV Professional and using another client on a laptop and whilst the stream runs continuously on the other client (which is clunky to use so not as user friendly as ProgDVB) but ProgDVB + ProgTV Professional always does this regardless of what channel is being streamed, it is a constant issue which I'd like to resolve before I buy the license.

Hi,
It happens on all channels.
Not sure how I could send you a link as it's a paid For IPTV service (Flawless IPTV) so I'd have to share login and password with you.
My problem is identical to the original poster in this thread.

Will do. Can you tell me which files in the log folder I should send you? IS the best way to send them via attachment in a PM or by email and if email what's the best email address to use for you?

Hi All,
Glad that someone else is having this issue. Started using ProgDVB again on my PC, but experienced the same issues again.
I think it must have something to do with the time shift buffer or something.. just a guess though.
With that said have anyone figured out why this is happening?
Thnx

Hi all,
Anyone manage to get rid of this problem?
It's very annoying and is transferred to recordings, which makes the playback a real pain to watch.
Thnx

No but I can confirm over updated to the latest version of the software and the problem still exists.
