I’m sure this is probably being discussed already, but I’m wondering if there is a solution for the ability to rewind or fast forward on the new Apple TV.

if I hit FF or RW, I am booted back to the main menu.

What kind of media are you playing? I have no problem with FF/RW at all.

Just following up and seeing if anyone else is still having this issue. I am still not able to FF or RW when playing movies in PLEX on my Apple TV from my PC running PLEX Server.
