3.5.12 is ugly

[tOLJY 49]

3.5.12 of the ap just updated on my TCL google TV.

- there is a bunch of empty space above continue watching for some reason

- headings are massive (latest x, latest y) and have way too much of a margin and for some reason are clickable now (don't need this when I have a link to my media in its own widget)

- the new S1, E1 format with the comma looks horrible

This is all I've noticed so far but there's probably more. Why change something that looked good and polished? It looks rough and low quality now...

In red below, large margin in vertical mode.

In blue, episode formatting doesn't look as good as before and in green, selectable heading which seems larger and didn't used to be selectable, used to allow you to only select though the titles which is way better.

Hi, we'll take a look at these. Thanks.

Any updates on this?

At least if you guys can quickly get out a fix for the blank space that would be awesome, thanks

Hi, please let us know how the next update to the app compares for you. Thanks.

[tOLJY 49]

Thankyou! When should I expect it? New version is still not available for me on my Google TV.

Hi, I've just updated to 3.5.15 and it looks much better. Naming convention back to what it was and no headings selected.

However, there is still a huge gap in-between the first items in the UI which isn't as prominent on my phone, so not sure why it's affecting the TV version so much. Are you able to reduce the padding in this area?

see attached .

[Luke 42077]

It can be reduced a little bit, yes.

[tOLJY 49]

Comparing it to the difference between all the other sections, it's probably twice as large as it should be. 

It looks completely fine on a phone though.

@LukeI've done some moving of the home screen widgets around and it appears that it's specific to the small my media widget only. Spacing between everything else is good, just that widget seems to have extra bottom padding.

Pictures for reference.
