    Hallelujah - it may only have one small improvement but it will make a huge difference!

    Finally a back journey out of a recording that returns you to exactly the episode tile you went in on!!!!!

    It seems the smaller, quicker released updates Next Gen promised are true

    In the release note it states - "pressing the 'Back' button on the remote control will now return you to the episode selection screen".

    It doesn’t state what happens if you press the  stop button - where do you land?  I usually press stop when credits start rolling

     

    But remember this posting - “This recording has ended press back to dismiss” - Why?

    The last comment in that thread was from Yasha Noke  who wrote:-  

    My first thought was  - "why the extra pop-up?".

    My next thought was the same as yours i.e. puzzlement as to why the extra pop-up was talking about a recording ending when it was a playback of a recorded programme that had ended.

    My third thought was that perhaps I was out of touch with colloquialisms, but as I could not see the point of the message appearing I pressed "BACK to dismiss" what I still view as a superfluous pop-up.

    Hi dave - I always press stop, it also works as expected now taking you back to the relevant episode tile :)

    Well that’s better news – why didn’t they put that in the release note?

    Probably because they don't quite know themselves what's in any given release :-(
    I have a low opinion of people who press the Disagree button instead of engaging in reasoned debate. 
    I have an even lower opinion of YouView’s continued policy of letting such people hide behind the cloak of anonymity.

    I repeat, if there is a release note for 28.26.0 then where is it?

    Major step forward. Very welcome.I can tick one thing off my wish list for series folders.

    Still work to be done in series folders, but this addition is a big part of it.

    Apologies it's updated to 28.26.0 - but still has Mytv tiles with no obvious options for lists - the annoying bar is still there when it turns on - so there's the confirmation - the customer is unimportant - the developers vanity reigns supreme.

    Sorry, I must have missed the announcement that with this update, NextGen development is now complete.

    Where was that, please?

    The only new feature is the back journey from recordings and a few bug fixes. Other items on your wish list may or may not appear in future - I would hazard a guess as to 'may not'. The 'annoying bar' would be more useful if it showed the user's favourite channels - then you could quickly jump to a channel of interest straight from the display - but oh dear - YouView don't do favourites.

    I thought i heard on the Connected TV Conference youtube video the mention of favourites, so maybe some progress there.

    No Tim. I don't believe he was referring to channel favourites, but content.
