TVApp deep / universal link not passing resume time for watch now videos

TVApp deep / universal link not passing resume time for watch now videos. We have both iOS and tvOS app that plays live stream, VOD and DVR. Same can be subscribed and managed in TVApp. From TVApp live stream or VOD can be launched (via open in "app" option) and played in both iOS and tvOS app. Launching and playing is fine but when we pause the video or close it from the iOS / tvOS app and relaunching it from TVApp does not resuming and playing it from beginning. We pass the now playing info but no luck. Is there any specific implementation to be followed? Please help.
