SDMattman 6 Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) 4.1.0 changed the way TV shows are navigated, with seasons appearing as a ribbon at the top and individual episode navigating going horizontal rather than vertical. It much less intuitive to navigate now. I haven't tried the movies section yet so I can't comment on it. Is there a way to get the old UI back?

However, if you don't like it, there is a setting in the app display settings. Did you look there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution speechles 1921 Posted December 5, 2023 Solution Share Posted December 5, 2023 (edited) The new method is a way to combine the "next up episode" and "more in season" rows together. It provides better navigation to get to episodes without the need to load a new screen every time. You can get to all episodes from the single detail screen. The episode row will move your focus to the next up episode when it first gains focus. After it does this try moving focus onto the season tabs instead of the episode row. You can also give focus to the season tabs instead of the episode row. When the season tabs has focus you can manually change the season and it will reflect onto the episode row below. You can also then press OK on the focused season tab. After you press OK on a season tab it will load that season up into a new screen with the old vertical display format. You can also use the option suggested in the post above to change this entirely back to the old way which will have a row with season folders. In the display section of the settings.

SDMattman 6 Posted December 13, 2023 Author Share Posted December 13, 2023 Thanks! That did it. I've also noticed that TV Shows no longer display the title in the upper left hand side of the screen when you're on the tile view of shows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraenhawk 58 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Thanks, this helped me as well. I don't mind the new interface, but unfortunately the merged view is ignoring the Display missing episodes checkbox. I verified that it's off at the user and library level (and everything is working as normal on the web interface) but the new Roku interface is showing "Future" episodes now that the web interface is not. Switching it to Always shows season folders corrects this. If the "Future" episodes issue is fixed, maybe I'll give the merged view a shot again.

I had an issue where the episodes on the ribbon view wouldn't play when selected. I don't know if it was playing the next unplayed one or what - but it insisted on playing the wrong episode no matter what I picked. I'll play with it some more so I can more accurately document the conditions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you press Ok and enter the detail view and use the play button icon to play it acts correctly. We will be fixing this and I will put the problem on our issue tracker.

She was like "There's now 12 clicks I gotta do to play the damn show, how is an upgrade?". Things are better now with the "Always show season folders" option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
