[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1156854, member: 109222"] Hi. Normally I liked the "TV" screen from MP1 but at least with BlueVision we have the TV menu that basically do the same. So here is no need for this screen at all as long as all needed actions are reachable from the menu (like it is today). So for this.... Do it like it is on MP1, simply tune the first channel in the list. This only is for the very first usage of an MP2 installation. After that, the last used channel should be stored for next time usage. This is how "normal" STB and TV did work, so why don't do it here the same way? With this most people are used to handle it as always... Not only for TV but in general we should think about a "memory" for MP2, a table in the DB or an local xml file or similar that stores (separate for every client if we use the DB for this) the last used positions, media items and so on. An example... I've watched the second last episode from "Haven" I've got (S05E14). After this episode is finished I need to check the weather or the news or if a planed recording properly is scheduled or similar. After I'm finished with that I like to watch the next unseen Episode of "Haven". Now I need to navigate all the way down to "Videohub - Series - (un)seen - Haven - Season 5 - Episode 15 - Play". It would be much better if the route was like this "Videohub - Series - Play" and I'm done. If there is no unseen Episode of Haven left then I should end up in "Series - (un)seen" so I can choose a different series to watch. The "back" button should act as an "one level up" button (not only) in this scenario so I can choose a different series if I like also there still are unseen episodes of the last watched series... This is how e.g. MP1 or Kodi is working and I like it the better. [/QUOTE]
