What would you like to add to software?
Our youview boxes have had a number of software updates with changes to give better players use and more of them . Plus we had updates to number of Internet channels and packages too.
But what would like to see added to the software next ? I would like to see a network / TV channels testing software like freeview channels are able be tested . This would help to know if any trouble on the Internet channels are from the network cable / Hub / BT Network.. So the next is to allow the recording choice of SD & HD on the Internet channels when you click to record on EPG . To be able to set the time on screen of the EPG banner longer or shorter. To put colour to recording R in the Scheduled listing like Red R for a season of shows Orange R for one off show Message banner with a red triangle saying that overnight or day recording failed to record when you first switch on the box without having to go into recordings. So what would you like to see next ???? |

Those all sound like reasonable ideas. The only thing I would like to add is the ability to record the buffer. This was available on my old Humax Freeview box (circa 2006) but, to the best of my knowledge, isn't yet on YouView. It is particularly useful if you have started watching a programme, but are called away for some reason.

I'd love to be able to turn off that stupid banner at the top of the screen when the boxes start recording something on another channel.

I would also like link series recored. So that when a programme that you have been series recording ends the box remembers that you had that programme on series recored. So when the programme comes back for a new series it will just start recording it again. Darren |

Manual recording option, with daily, weekday or weekly frequencies. Like you can do on Sky.
This allows the correct part of regular lengthy programmes to be recorded at the correct frequency... for example daily BBC Five Live programmes which are up to 4 hours long but which have regular one hour segments (such as Science) at the same time every week. To record these one hour weekly segments currently on Youview, I have to set it to record all 4 hours every darned day... 28 hours of recording to get the one hour I want! Present system they use is far too restrictive and needs a fix. Youview seem to be totally obsessed with their Exact Recording system and are deaf to calls for a badly needed manual override (buffer) option and a manual recording option. Pig headed obsession is the obvious explanation and it's spoiling an otherwise excellent product. |

Totally agree that a buffer service is need to allow for TV companies different overruns issues and also live shows too.
I too like to recording banner to remind me that the box is already recording but does it need all the top of the screen length ? Like to be able to record the show I am watching at any time with using the buffer system. Would like to see the recording logo taken away form the SD channel if recording HD or other way around. Like to see space to be able to record data bigger and coloured bar to be green, amber, red to show better. Would like P i P system made for customers to see a Freeview channels & Internet channels at the same time on screen. BT needs to change its everywhere software to take away the Bid TV at Epg 23 |
