Install old version of theater/ Turn off updates

[Smitty018210 53]

Hello can someone point me to the last version of theater that worked with server 4.7?

I'm sure it's on github somewhere, but I am finding it hard to find.

I downgraded my server and would like to do the same with theater.

I can not stand the UI changes and other updates that have happen since 4.8.

Also is there a way to stop theater from auto updating like with the server?

Thanks!

Really?

I want the last version of theater without all the changes.

Before all the awful UI changes.

Why can't you just give me a straight answer to my question?

I asked for a download link and explanation on how to disable auto update.

I should not have to explain myself. I am a paying custom.

I want the old version of theater before all the UI changes that have been discussed AT LENGTH in other topics.

I not here to have a discussion. I only want what I have asked for.

Can you do that or not?

HI, the Theater UI updates automatically independent of the rest of the app, although this is about to change when our new Windows app rolls out, where everything will be together in one download.

Regarding your user interface issue, we're happy to help you resolve your issue. Thanks.

Not what I wanted to hear, but at leased it's sort of a straight answer.

I do NOT want the current or any future versions of theater. I simply want the old UI back. I don't not like a single thing you have changed since the release of 4.8 server.

So the new app wont do anything to help. lol

You and I have already discussed this in many other topics. I am not going to go over it again with you. Waste of your time and mine.

I don't need to see "maybe in a future release again"

Yeah that new app. "Coming soon"........for the past 6 months......or maybe even longer than that.

I am just going to uninstall theater. Never wanted to use it anyway, but I wasn't given a choice after you guys sunset legacy support for WMC/MB3

I will just have to find an alternative.

They don't exist that I know of so either previous are not public or don't exist as update most of the time just happen within the same app version.

As Theater has a system.xml also you can disable updates.

Hi, the only topic I've seen you mention feedback in is relating to the missing "See all" function, but you can now do this in Theater, right?

Additionally, the function is restored in 4.8.6 which should be released in the next couple days.

Don't know if it was ever there but also about TV mode header links.

[Smitty018210 53]

You can close this topic or delete it.

I've uninstalled. Don't waste your time here guys.

Actually, just looked in 4.7 and TV mode had header links also just no "see all" (from a web client perspective) but I personally always hide the "see all" as they were duplicates of header links.

So all apps need updated to reincorporate header links.

 

With the question of should Movie & Shows be one combine link or two individual links?  per other discussions.
