I noticed that although I can still fast forward/rewind, I can no longer see the status bar showing the progress and speed, 1x, 2x or 3x, of said rewind/fast forward.
might try cycling the power.. We just got the upgrade and those features are there. Only issue I have is if you fast forwarding or the likes and Caller ID on tv pops in the DVR becomes 100% unresponsive except for the power button.
