Bounces back to Live TV Menu on no Timeshift (1 Viewer)

[KevinM]

If you change channel to one that is not currently transmitting, a dialog box opens asking if you wish to "Tune Previous Ch?". If you select "No" you are returned to the previous screen, which might be the Live TV menu or TV Guide - depending on where you were before watching TV.

This means that you can't easily try the next channel.

This is quite odd behaviour, but MP has always handled non-transmitting channels in a peculiar way.

Ideally, it should just being up a screen saying 'No Transmission Detected' or something similar and leave it up to the user to navigate to another channel of their choice. (This is the way all domestic PVRs work).

I'm not sure this is technically a bug - what should MP do by design in these situations?

Hi,
This it's not a bug but by design & it could be handled in another way.
Improvement Suggestions it's the correct forum part for that
