"04 - Additional program details (First Air Date, Actors, ect)"

Definitly a welcome addition. Kind of chicken to try CE's so any idea if or when this one might go live as a release? Also as my brain is working slow today and I live in Denver, 11PM - 2:30AM ET would be 9PM-12:30 MT correct?

Yeah, thats the right time for the DL(I think MT is 2 hours behind ET). The additional details are nice for sure. This release is probably going national soon, this is the 10th release in the cycle.

I hope they added the episode number too.
 
Nope no episode numbers...yet but maybe they will add it someday soon. So far not found any issues with the CE tho and seems very responsive guide wise:D

Do you mean the remote is more responsive ?
It seems like it takes longer than normal when you press a button of late.

I missed this CE, fell asleep :sleeo
I'll catch it tonight :up

Last weeks has been working well, think I'll give this one a try tonight.
Does anyone know if they are ever going to expand the prioritizer, 50 just doesn't do it for me. Am I the only one?
 
I have my install today. I guess I missed the window to download? If so, how long before this becomes public?

From other posts they are getting "close" based on the number of CE's and refinements.

This last CE was solid as far as I can tell. Haven't had any issues. I'll keep downloading the new CE every weekend unless they do something to reduce features (like remove booleans).
 
I am pleased with the CE program but had a problem last night I am pretty sure it is related.

I recorded NCIS and American Idol at the same time and both showed a full recording, but when we watched them they froze @ 54 min. and the delete/don't delete menu popped up.

This is a problem because there my wife’s shows and because I want to avoid this when LOST records.

I am thinking of going back to the NR just until Friday night.
 
This release went NATIONAL starting today!

Not sure if we'll see anything Friday or not, but good news that this fixed alot of issues and was successful :)
