You mean "I will get an option at the bottom of the 'Home' screen" at some point in the not too distant future.

I thought that now we are all singing from the same NGTV hymn sheet that we all had the exact same services available to us. So does this mean that there still can be (see Radio Times for) regional head-end variations?

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

Any new service can still be rollout on on a Regional Headend basis

Ok sorry about this, apparently you don't. I was apparently looking at out of date information :dunce:

The enhanced search replaces the current search functions in the On Demand areas, so is currently only accessed from there

I don't seem to get this option in Teesside, even though someone above suggested it was.

Has this been temporarily removed? Just curious...

Some feedback and comments on the new search facility.

On the whole very pleased with it and the speed at which results are returned but a few improvements are required:

1) A search option should be placed on the main menu
2) Make the "ALL OD" category the default search category
3) If a search does not return any programmes in the default search category, you cannot press left to the preceding category. You can only press right to the next category. (pressing left just backspaces your previous input string). This would not be such a problem if 2) above was implemented.
4) Page numbers are not in the usual format (page x of y).

If any of the usual VM staffers on CF would care to pass this on, I'd appreciate it. Thx.

Is it possible to enter a space when searching, e.g. could I search for "big bang theory" rather than "big" to narrow the search?

Another suggestion: When searching Music On Demand, a "Play all" option would be extremely beneficial.

Very impressed with it overall though, well done VM!

I thought the zero key did a space?

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

I still haven't got it.. Why the hell not??:mad:

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

Not trying to be sarcastic here but you've not got it because the rollout hasn't finished yet.

Anything like this is rolled out in stages to make sure nothing breaks.

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

Just tried it and you're right Ben, thanks (I could have sworn I tried that! :blush:). However, it doesn't narrow the results so I think it must now be searching for "Big" or "Bang".

Someone said that it had all Been rolled out that's why iam getting a little ****ed off.

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

The basic NGTV roll-out is complete but this is additional function on top of that. It has a 'More Like This' function as well.

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

I have to say that i have been reading this thread with bated breath and have to say that this function has just been added here in BARNSLEY. It does make the search alot easier:D

Re: My 1st thread woop! I'm in trial area for new Tivo style (sort of lol) OD search
 

Tried the searches: BRO, BROT, BROTH

It did not find Band of Brothers (HD) - of which there are 11 episodes in TVChoice!?

A search for: 'PEA' finds Black Eyed Peas ok though

Looks like there are some bugs to iron out.

There's been a slight delay to the last few areas,, hang in there Windy :)
