Software version 5.14

For anyone interested in such things, software version 5.14 has appeared on my 360 boxes. I only noticed it by chance Sunday evening. As per usual, the 'What's New' section is uninformative and there's nothing obvious that I can find that has changed.

Hi there @thrice 

Thank you so much for your post and we are glad to hear you software has updated. 

Are there any issues at all after the recent change? 

No issues to be found so far, Ashleigh, but it does seem an underwhelming update. I live in hope of one day finding a recording undelete feature in an update. I'm not the most intense user of the 360 box, but I do think this is a serious omission.

I tried a couple of the streaming apps yesterday evening - ITVX and All4 - for the first time since the update and was pleasantly surprised to find that both these apps that were previously slow to load and navigate are now more usable. Not exactly sprightly but certainly not the turgid experience they were before.

Hi again @thrice 

Info below from VM's /Digital-life/ page regarding the 5.14 update.

TV Guide for FAST channels

Our selection of FAST (Free Ad-supported Streaming Television) channels now show programming information within the TV Guide, enabling you to easily see what shows are currently broadcasting. More information on our FAST channels can be found here

Continue Watching

A show will now stay in the Continue Watching section if there is more than 5% or 5 minutes (whichever is lowest) remaining at the point you stop watching. Previously this was 10% or 10 minutes. This change will prevent shows from disappearing too early from the Continue Watching section

Well spotted, newapollo. I would never have found that by myself. I have never watched any FAST channel.

Got 5.14 but the FAST channels still the same on the guide.   The change to 5% for the continue watching is rubbish.   Now I no longer get a delete show prompt so it takes longer to delete watched recordings 

Hi @1701-e, thank you for your post. We're sorry to hear you feel this way 😔

We always take on board feedback we receive and will certainly pass this along to the relevant teams.

Regards,
Daniel
