I contacted ITVX. They do not provide “watch from the start” functionality on LG TV’s (just about the only one) 🙁
Hi @Freddy Clark..!!
It’s frustrating to hear the missing “watch from the start” option. Here are a few things you can try:
1. Try accessing ITVX on a streaming stick, game console, or a different brand of smart TV that supports the feature.
2. Mirror the ITVX app from your phone, tablet, or computer to your LG TV.
3. Let ITVX and LG know you want this feature. If enough people ask, they might add it in the future.
These steps can help you enjoy your content even without “watch from the start” feature on your LG TV.
