Apple TV Fast Forward 2x/3x/4x ("Click Only")

Hi again! (after decades with DirecTV Satellite, and leader at the other place)

Equipment: multiple Apple TV 4K's with remote(s) in "Click Only" mode or Bluetooth Function101 remotes.

Please update the Apple TV native app to support Fast Forward/Rewind for 1x/2x/3x/4x movement thru a recording.

Almost every app supports holding down the left or right arrow and moving at 1x/2x/3x/4x speeds.

Longtime fan of DirecTV, but in the current state, advancing hours thru a recording makes the Apple TV app unusable.

Note: Using Gemini is not an option, neither is Apple TV remote in "Click & Touch" mode, also tried Apple TV voice and that's non functional as well.

Environment is multiple Apple TV 4K's, one with dual Bluetooth Function101 remotes (which work great), but lack of FF/RW 1x/2x/3x/4x just makes the app unusable for recorded sporting events, and DirecTV is the only streaming service with all of my RSN's.

Thanks for the consideration, and glad to see DirecTV making a comeback.
