Look at Channels DVR for discovering new content. “On Later”. That sums it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justinrh 175 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Right, like maybe a screenshot of Channels would be helpful. Maybe he means https://getchannels.com/a/images/tv-shots/library.png or https://getchannels.com/on-later/ Who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37254 Posted September 21, 2023 Share Posted September 21, 2023 Have you tried the Suggestions tab in our Live TV? It lists upcoming Shows, Movies, Sports, Kids and News. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike3821 61 Posted September 21, 2023 Author Share Posted September 21, 2023 5 minutes ago, Luke said: Did you try scrolling down to explore the sections underneath? Yes, but this doesn’t have sections that indicate things such as my examples above. New shows this week, new seasons… No easy way to see a category of these sections.

What categories would you like to see? So from the app on the phone, or the web interface on the computer, I can build out filters to help see what's new, by filtering it out with "New" and "Ratings". However, can we get more functionality within the Android TV app to filter within Live TV / Programs or build two new categories that do the filters for us? This would greatly improve the experience for the end user in terms of discovering new content, new seasons, etc. Edited September 23, 2023 by mike3821 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14959 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Hi. Can you try sideloading our standard android app on the same device and see how that compares? https://emby.media/emby-for-android.html Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it has those features since it looks like this is meant for a phone not a tv. i noticed the following issues. - scrolling the live tv guide it goes all over the place from far right to left. - channel up/down is backwards on the live tv guide - channel buttons don’t work anymore?

Will the speed of the new app be on par with the Android TV version? As of now it’s just way to slow to transition between menus. It’s driving me mad. To slow on my GTV and TiVo stream 4K.
