Title: "Forward" command doesn't work correctly all the time
Post by: pizzaguy on May 23, 2023, 04:13:56 pm

On every podcast I listen to, I use the "Forward" command frequently to skip over commercials.  This always works correctly for the first 15-20 minutes of the podcast, but at some point, the forward command will actually go backward in the show to some random place, then I have to goof around with several forward commands to actually get to a forward location.  What's up with this?

first of all, ads in a podcast are not the responsibility of Amazon.  They are brought to you by the company that created the podcasts.   There is always the possibility that the ads are locked so you cannot skip all of them     Did you check alexa voice history to see what it heard?
