has to be a way to pause live tv

Hi, I subscribe to an iptv service. I am trying to figure out a way to pause and fast forward live tv on simple client. I am using a amazon fire tv box with kodi 17. it seems like this should be possible. or is there another iptv client that supports m3u? that will work with this? any help with this would be great, my wife likes to pause tv when she gets up or something and then resume when she starts watching tv again, thanks in advance
