Re: Comcast On Screen Guide - Community Feature Wishlist This probably goes beyond the scope of the guide, and would require participation by the broadcasters, but when there's a promo for an upcoming show, I would love a little popup to appear, would you like to record/remind this program? |

Yuck. I hope these various popups can be DISABLED. It's going to be very annoying having to either dismiss them or have them BLOCK what is going on on-screen. |

1 edit | Oh I got one..
There's NO REASON for a huge banner to show up in the very middle of the screen that says "RECORDING FINISHED". Oh yeah, what do you want me to do about it Comcast? And it stays there for a real long time until you push exit. Completely unnecessary. Whats worse it comes up even if your not watching what's recording. You could be playing back a different show on the DVR, or on another tuner.
What a waste. |

.....or how about just ignoring them? I think they are only on the screen over a 30 second commercial for 15-20 seconds. |

2 edits | It's not a commercial, and hard to ignore when it's plastered right in the center of the screen in a huge box that's 1/3rd the vertical screen width.
For example, I was watching a program on the DVR. In the middle of the program that stupid big box came up saying my Recording finished. Like I could care less... I was watching something totally different. Besides, if you look at the front of the DVR, you can tell when the recording's finished, as the Red LED goes out. It wasn't as intrusive in A24. And duh the recordings finished, I can look it up in the My DVR Recordings list. It's not necessary. Does Tivo do this? |
