Favorites Mode Popup?

^What's that mean, Scott?

 

[Hall]

That sounds a fair bit different than the other "notes" you posted a couple days ago (???).

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

The notes I posted in the Pub were tech notes for the software, The o fficial Dish Release notes only contain the consumer stuff and not the tech stuff.

Scott, can you elaborate on the EHD transfer fixes?

Maybe the favorites pop up will be a advertisement to purchase more from Dish.

AD clicks are king.

Difference in Recordings folder I've noticed... and a comparison with the competition (shot 3 was a blank screen I got trying to access my Maxtor EHDD, never happened before on this drive)

 

[BFG]

?? what's different on the recording d, looks exactly the same?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I like the folders.

 

[dfergie]

Extra step is there not?

 

[HoodlumKY]

I've had the folders for quite some time now. There was a setting in there somewhere that I changed to see it grouped like that. Was I some kind of early beta-tester or something?

The folders is an option, go to your DVR screen, click the button that says "GROUP" and this is where you can group all similar recordings into folders by name or you can ungroup them and they will appear in the list as they were recorded by date and time. This option has been available for quite sometime, I myself hate the folders...

dfergie, the empty screen you got when trying to access your external hard drive is probably due to your external hard drive being in 'sleep mode'. My Seagate doesn't stay 'awake' that long so I am constantly having to unplug the hard drive from the wall and reboot it, then it works until it falls back into sleep mode.

Dont see much.. what I think you are trying to show is that you no longer need to go to "edit" to select multiple programs to delete?

 

[dfergie]

Never had this happen on other than my Seagate Free Agent drives... this is a Maxtor one touch 4 500 gig drive... Will have to hook up a WD My Book and see what happens..

 

[RandallA]

In picture #2, I see the option to select all and deselect all. I just hope that you can delete multiple shows now. It was a pain to have to do one by one.

 

[darrencp22]

Wasnt that feature there?

 

[dfergie]

Pic 6 should be 2, 2 should be 3 etc... I uploaded and realized I had missed it...

 

[darrencp22]

I still dont get it. what is the change?

 

[FitzAusTex]

based off his E* screen shots, i cant see anything that isnt already there on L448, as I just checked against my 622. Did learn something new- hadnt realized we could use the Edit button on the My Recordings screen to delete, protect or unprotect all at once.

 

[Pakbackr]

Not to be picky, but does anyone else think E*'s on-screen menus need a visual update? I had Tivo on D* for years and have always felt like their graphics were much nicer.
