Re: Official Comcast blog about new SA guide said by cypherstream:That must be the Guide 2.0 I posted in the other threads!
Yes, it is On-Screen Guide 2.0. I don't know if it will look like the pics that you posted since it has been so long.
I posted the schedule because phase 2 has slipped from an early 2012 release to a mid 2012 release that is merged with the phase 3 mid 2012 release. According to Ted Hodgins,
quote:
We are planning to merge the phases 2 and 3 into an accelerated single guide release; that is being discussed and worked on now.
That would then deliver more features at one time; the interactive television features (Caller ID to TV, HSN Shop By Remote, Ready Remind Record and Request For Information), plus My DVR Manager (the ability to schedule your DVR from a PC, laptop or other internet connected device) and the Xfinity TV app.
We are targeting that release to be available in mid-2012.

Also, the Cisco/SA AnyRoom DVR has slipped to mid 2012. Note: The original poster asked about Minneapolis, but I think other locations will be getting it then too.
According to Ted Hodgins,
quote:
AnyRoom DVR for our SA-Cisco areas comes with our On Screen Guide 2.0 and is currently targeted to be available in Minneapolis by mid-2012.

Yes
According to Comcast's Ted Hodgins (see underlined section),
quote:
We are well underway with full-scale comprehensive employee trials in several markets and anticipate getting these DVR fixes out to many locations over the next two months. Our first markets for this software patch are scheduled to be in CT and MS. As we get closer to getting into customer homes I will update that information here.
Some of the significant customer-impacting items addressed in the upcoming software patch include:
1. Truncated DVR Recordings - Some customers are experiencing DVR recordings that end early or are being significantly cut off
2. Not Authorized message on a HD Channel - Some customers may have seen a Not Authorized overlay occasionally on authorized HD channels that they are in fact authorized to watch.
3. Pass Through available as a HD resolution option via the HD Wizard screen.
We continue to work the above in parallel with guide development and guide deployments of our newer guides for our newer cable boxes; On-Screen Guide 2.0, which is currently available with our AnyRoom DVR service in selected areas of Florida and On-Screen Guide 3.0 which is currently available to customers in Augusta, GA.
Additional information about On Screen Guide 2.0 will be available on Comcast Voices soon.
A peek into information about On-Screen Guide 3.0 is available here: »blog.comcast.com/2011/05/looking···nce.html

I don't know why it is taking so long for the Cisco/SA AnyRoom DVR functionality to expand from selected areas of Florida to other locations. |
