I don’t have recordings. And its both seek and resuming. It also seems to happen when pausing and turning on subtitles. I have at least two friends reporting that it happens on everything. If they don’t complete a show, they have to start over.

as @fly said - you need to check where you placed the dd.exe and the .ts file. I reied to make it easy for you by avoiding having to putting long paths to the NAS

So for example you could do this

start cmd.exe session
in command line window type in
cd %LocalAppData%
Then create a temp test directory
mkdir ddsample
Then you need to copy this file from the NAS
/shares/Public/Public/Movies/Miracle on 34th Street (1947)/Miracle on 34th Street (1947).ts
Copy it to %LocalAppData%\ddsample
Then look into where you extracted the dd-0.5.zip files
Copy dd.exe from there to %LocalAppData%\ddsample
Then back to the command line session and type command
cd %LocalAppData%\ddsample
You can do a dir command and that should show two files here the 9Gb .ts file and the dd.exe file
Then create the split directory below current directory
mkdir split
Then run the dd.exe command exactly as I stated
dd if="Miracle on 34th Street (1947).ts" of="split\300MbClip.ts" bs=1M count=300
The output file you should find in %LocalAppData%\ddsample\split as file named 300MbClip.ts

Alright I got it! Thank you for the detailed instructions. I thought I had to run the commands using dd.exe, not the Windows cmd. Here’s a link to the 3 minute sample.
