There are two issues that are still really bothering me with the interface. Could I take a moment to just raise these and request a patch?

 

Changing the channel by pressing number keys is really slow, the system waits for the user to enter four digits, or to bypass it you have to press for buttons (usually 000#).  Can we have this changed to a two digit method with shorter waiting period?  We don't have more than 100 channels and I don't think will for quite some time.

 

Can we have the BACK button take the system back to the most recently visited channel?  I think it does this sometimes, but only a few seconds after having changed the channel.  At all other times it brings up the mini-EPG, and there are already two other buttons that do this: the red button and the OK button.

 

Thank you.  I am typically very happy with how this model functions and performs.

 

For issue 1, there is a channel 600 for testing and also non freeview channels will be store from 1000 up, so waiting for 4 digits is necessary. If the user wants to speed the change up they need to press the ok button straight after the channel numbers.

For issue 2, The back button is reserved by the freeview plus application when it is loaded in the background, we can't change this. It works for a moment after the channel change because at that point the freeview plus app is reloading and hasn't reserved the button at that stage.
