I watch quite a few btn2go matches as replays, and am getting tired of the time bar progress essentially being a big spoiler. For example, based on where the marker is at the end of the first set and what the video time length says I often can't help but knowing that it will end in 3 or even 4, or w/e. I know I can avoid it by playing the video all the way through full screen without further touching the controls, but, depending on the stream and whether they strip out ads, and based on how much time I actually have to watch, it'd sure be nice to FFWD and such without getting these spoilers. I suppose I can try to turn a blind eye, but it's hard not to see the progress marker on the big bar.

Just grab a roll of duct tape and cover up the bar. Problem solved.

I agree with the OP. ndodge didn't say that this was the world's biggest problem, or that all other problems are not relevant.
I don't recall whether WatchESPN still does it, but their replays used to have little colored markers on the timeline. The markers were colored for the team that scored or made a big play (think football). I don't recall if they wised up or not and removed those markers, but that really ruined the potential to watch a replay without having a major clue how the game would end.
For VB, it's even worse. If it's 2-0 and there is only 25 minutes remaining in the program, there's no doubt about the outcome.
Unfortunately, it's highly unlikely that this will be corrected for volleyball on BTN2GO. Making the change would likely be non-trivial. VB simply isn't that important to BTN.
