Initial v5 comments

TLDspectre · 2019-06-20, 01:13 PM

I did some initial testing with v5 and like what I'm seeing so far. In particular I noticed it automatically creates IPTV Channel groups for me from the channel listings, whereas with v4 I had to create them myself (unless I'm missing something?). One feature request - in the groups list (Channels > Advanced Tools > Channel Groups), would it be possible to add a "hide" feature to hide channels from a particular group? The current option of deleting the group makes it tedious to restore the group at a later date. For example, I'd like to be able to hide sports group channels (NFL, NHL, NBA etc.) during the off seasons, then make them visible at the appropriate time.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

BTW, if I should be reporting in a different thread, could you point out the correct one?

Just noticed an issue with the web guide - if a channel doesn't have an epg listing, there's no way to play the channel. I can use the "Channels" menu list, but it would be nice if there were some type of "play" button in the guide that plays whatever is currently on the selected channel. Maybe just may the channel name clickable?

FYI, in the next build these channels with no listings will have place holder entries so you can easily get to a 'watch' button etc.
