[QUOTE="Richtv, post: 13321, member: 12260"] [b]Usability[/b] Use a complementary background color and smaller font size for TV guide program descriptions, movie descriptions, and so on. Perhaps use dark font color for the text. Otherwise, everything just blends together. Streaming radio stations: Provide on/off toggle next to stations. Currently, I can add the url for a streaming station and click the station descriiption to turn it on. But there is no off button. Full screen mode: Provide the ability to minimize. Pop-up menus: Provide the ability to switch modes (TV to Radio, TV to Weather) rather than navigating back through a sequence of screens. Or document easy method for programming remote buttons to do this. Also, provide pop-up method to access brightness/contrast/saturation/etc. controls. CC: Provide access to CC filters.
