Observations on version 084F on my HR24-200.
There are still major problem with OnDemand.
1. The layout of vertical tall thin boxes to hold horizontal text for titles frankly sucks. You'd think that if you had to have boxes, given that all languages DirecTV supports are written horizontally, you'd at least use horizontal boxes. Are you preparing to display titles in Chinese or Japanese? This layout required shrinking the size of the title text and make the layout both difficult to use and unreadable. This is the most serious problem from my viewpoint as I am a heavy user of OnDemand.
2. There is no longer an "All" entry for each channel. This forces me into a game of guessing into which catagory you decided to place the program I'm looking for.
3. There are no longer markers in the program listing showing which program have already been downloaded.
I have been a heavy user of OnDemand. The net effect of these changes is to change downlaod program from an easy task of a few minutes to an much longer ordeal. I don't mean this as a threat, but if OnDemand remains this difficult to use, I will be shifting to a different service. There was nothing wrong with the original progam listing layout. It was superior in every respect to what you have now. I'm hoping you will decide to just drop the OnDemand changes and revert to the previous listing format.
