[IMG] 1.9 Likes / Dislikes & Bugs

My co-worker is in NY and just got the update last week (or whenever it was). She is having an issue where the remote isn't working correctly. She had called tech support like 5 times this weekend because she also had an issue where the channel wouldn't change at all. When talking to the tech the guy said something about the update changing the codes with the remote. I think he might be talking about the way the firmware handles the remote codes. Either way, I am just wondering if anybody else has had any issues with their remote and not working after 1.9? Also any issues with not being able to change channels?

A couple of Verizon sites for those that may not know.

First one is specific to 1.9.

and (not specific to 1.9 but noteworthy)...

Like what I have seen in the past week. Any bugs that affect what I do are minor. The additional storage and multi-DVR access is a major plus as is the HD guide.

One thing that is consistent as reported elsewhere is caller ID. It was sporadic at best under 1.8 and is sporadic at best under 1.9.

add more time options to the 'modify start/end times' for scheduled recordings...it's good to see 1.9 add the 1 minute extender option but it would be nice to see even more time slots (on the short end)...it jumps too far ahead each time...1 minute to 5 minutes to 10 minutes etc

I long for a Remove All or Delete All in the "Recent Deletes" section of the DVR like the "History" section has.

Love the extra storage space.
Hate the giant channel banner that takes up 1/4 of my screen.

Native Video Pass-through.

STB ability to create and delete recordings on the DVR.

Display of 2 1/2 hours

Improved 3d support including ability to read info while in 3d mode.

Dislikes

I am neutral on the color of the IMG, but would like a different, perhaps slightly larger, font. Ideally some choice on what is used.

The HD IMG squeezing into SD when you bring it up while viewing a SD channel. I use native mode including 480i for SD channels

Likes: Wide Screen guide on my 7x box.

Dislikes: Overly large info bar upon changing channels with no option to customize or disable it.

The injection of VOD listings amongst the regular listings.

Sluggish response to remote control commands.

I have native pass through set on all my set top boxes- the picture seems to be sharper and clearer in my opinion.

I dislike the blank screen time when you change channels and the resolution changes. (4 or 5 second delay)

A question: can you set the guide to only display HD channels all the time, when you select it under options it show only Hd channels, but when you exit out and go back in, in shows all channels.

Also I would just like to comment that I was in my local fios store yesterday showing them how to set native pass through and one of the employees commented that 1.91 might be coming in February. Has anybody else heard about this?

That's not to disable it, it just changes what comes up instead of the info bar, the other choice is even worse, it covers the whole screen.
