That's the one I was waiting for — thank you. A DV set switching over is the one thing I had no
way to test here, and it was the last open question in 1.4.

And thanks for the picture — it arrived, and it's exactly the screen I needed: the line reads
"signalled to the TV" and your set agrees with it.

For anyone else here with a Dolby Vision TV: there's nothing to do, it's already in 1.4. The only
report I'd still like to see is the opposite one — if the Playback Information screen ever says
Dolby Vision was signalled and then withdrawn, that's the case I can't reproduce here.

@vdatanet Just checked out the new update. Nice! Skip intro and credits pull up correctly and work very well. Will have more time to test further tonight and tomorrow. I plan to give the app a good run.

One UI point I noticed and not sure if on purpose or not - on the "Continue Watching" Row, instead of showing the name of the episode under the thumb image it says "Up Next" (I believe in most apps that is where it would show the episode name. It then shows the season number/episode number and episode runtime (which is good). 

Is it possible to have it display the episode name instead of the "Up Next"?

Good catch, and yes — it's changed, and a bit further than you asked.

That line was deliberate, which is the interesting part: the shelf merges "continue watching" and
"up next" into one row, and the metadata line was what told them apart. Your report makes it
obvious the label was doing nothing useful — a next-up card already has no progress bar, so the
text was saying twice what the card already said, and never saying the one thing you were looking
for.

So episodes now read the same in both states, the way you'd expect:

  The Big Bang Theory
  S1:E8 - The Grasshopper Experiment

with the progress bar as the only difference between one you've started and one that's next.

One thing that costs you, and I'd rather point it out than have you notice it: the runtime is gone
from that line — the part you said was good. The bar now does that job on its own. If you miss it
once you're living with it, say so; you're the one who looked closely enough to spot the first
problem.

And thank you for the skip intro/credits report — that's the first time I've heard those two work
in someone else's house, which is worth more than it sounds.

Excellent. Such a quick response.

Yeah, the runtime isn't a big deal. I actually don't think I have ever seen it listed in other apps any way. Probably will look cleaner without it to be honest.

I do love the UI layout in general. The images look really nice and clean. 

I will be watching several movies this weekend so will report anything regarding playback. I don't have very much 4K content that I haven't already watched. It's mostly just 1080p standard blu-ray rips with 5.1 audio. I am playing mostly on a 1080 projector anyway and is why I don't much bother with 4K stuff anymore. My TV in the bedroom is 4K but don't watch in there as much. I am also playing to 2 Homepod Pros so audio becomes a big deal on most apps. Yours plays back just fine so far.

Ui bug maybe

 

when you go down on the homepage it always goes to the middle poster and not the left ( not sure if this is intended ) but when you are in the tv or movie section it wil not go down to the last row if there is no poster under where you are focused .
