Thanks Nascar. The skip in VOD, the white box in the guide, and the bigger font options are great additions. |

Since they put My Fios TV in the menu, did they get rid of it by pressing the Fios TV button? |

I wonder how long it will take for these to come to Quantum... by 2020, maybe? |

Although some of those UI improvements we (Quantum Users) already have (white box in the guide).
Now that I look at it, this update seems to be centered on DVR improvements, and since I only DVR things maybe 2-3 a month, this update doesn't really appeal to me, so I don't really care about it. However, I can see some people can really benefit from this.
Rollout schedule? |

I just look forward to all the Quantum bugs being squashed - sooner rather than later. |

Any idea how the percentage will show for the external drive?
One thing I would really like is a rating that shows when the program is highlighted, and not having to press info. -seems like there is room between Episode and Cast. |

I know it's a stupid question.
Time frame if you can, VHO-2
Thanks, |

The message in the STB Message Center summarizes these changes, and interestingly refers to "...your Arris Set Top Box..." This pertains to our Motorola STB too I presume? |

Does this update include the Arris (Quantum) boxes? Or is it a typo? |

Ok, that's what I thought, just wanted to confirm |
|

% full indicator is back where it should be.
Option to remove the colors from the guide.
White box around active selection in guide.
Life is good. They fixed my three biggest complaints in this IMG.
Is the rollout schedule available yet? |
|
|
to nascar
Can I assume that this will be the final IMG update for the 7xxx series boxes? To fix some bugs and add features, to polish it out.
I know a few thought 1.9.7 was going to be the last one. |

Why would it be the last one? If improvements are made in the future why wouldn't they be made to the vast majority of what's out in the field? |

They are still updating the 6xxx boxes and the 2500's |

So they'll finish at IMG 1.9.9 then, lol.

But he could mean that since no one has 1.9.8, that 1.9.8 IS the last update.... |
|
|
Could be.
But I assume that this is the 1.9.8 thread, that "one more update to go", means 1.9.9 is the last.
But I can be wrong. |

Sorry I did not intend to confuse anyone. There is one more update after 1.9.8. said by webcobbler:Could be.
But I assume that this is the 1.9.8 thread, that "one more update to go", means 1.9.9 is the last.
But I can be wrong. |

So I was correct! haha, lol |
