Question, Recently The download progress indicator when downloading movies and tv shows just shows pending, right up until done.  Evidently the files are still downloading, there just is no progress indicated.  You don't know if you have 10 min left, or 30 sec.  I thought the issues may have been with my surface pro 6, but just bought a new Surface X, same thing.  Any ideas?
