V8 Nova blue apps

Post by suduman »

Hi GTMedia team,

Please do the following app improvements in your next firmware release.
1. Increase the number of characters accommodate in YouTube search bar. Current length is not sufficient.
2. Most of the time YouTube search ends up with data error. It is not consistent and stable. Please fix this. We always used to view searched content.
3. Add VOD feature to xTream app.
4. Fix youporn app. It allows in our country and the app itself does not work.

In infobar it does not identify the encryption type. It always displays '?' icon instead of correct encryption type.

Apart from those shortcomings I don't find any major issue with the box.

Kindly fix these issues in your next firmware release.

I remember that I had issues like that.
I found that after the first time you scan the TP / Satellite the CAID info is shown in the info bar, but after a re scan of the same TP / Satellite the info in no longer shown.

To test if this is still the issue, set up a second satellite and scan it once and see if the encryption info is displayed.

OK.

I will try to test here on my unit.

This issue with re scan was back this time last year.

It did reappear with the UHD in one version.

I tested with my Nova and yes is shows the encryption type after the first scan but not after the second blind scan.

Test method.
Satellite list, add a new satellite, antenna menu and set the switch lnb freq etc, blind scan.
After the scan I look and all the encrypted channel show type, P B N.
After repeating the blind scan, only the Powervu channels show a encryption type, the B and N are gone.

Software I tested with 05082021 Nova Orange.
