Since the update prior to the one I currently updated to, I have not been able to rewind any videos at all. I am not quite sure what is going on and with the most recent update (one listed above) I am now getting a something went wrong error. With each update things appear to be getting worse.

Server Version#:1.23.6.4881-e2e58f321  
Player Version#: ??
