Oh be interesting for some feedback on this. I still have Bangers & Cash at the front of my list with any new episodes falling in behind it.

 

I removed it from my playlist which was fine but when added back in it went straight to the front again.

 

Doesn't make sense! I suspect a bug.

Re: Playlist refresh now live.

This is the thing that gets me confused;

 

Sky say -

 

'Most recent' rail

The 'Most recent' rail is the easiest way to find the latest things from your Playlist.

Here you'll find all the programmes that you've added to your Playlist. And when a new episode becomes available for a show that's already in your Playlist, it will jump to the beginning of the rail to let you know that there's something new to watch.

 

Very strange that its advertised so explicitly, yet it doesnt work this way!

Re: Playlist refresh now live.

I have a totally new series starting tonight that has never aired before, its the first in its series. 

 

So will see whether this jumps to the front magically.

The jump to the front of the rail has been working for me and is a nice feature as it doesn't clutter up continue watching. It's good to know knew stuff is ready but it keeps clear of continue watching until you actually start watching.

 

But for me at least something has happened with Bangers & Cash 🤔

 

I also get some Chateau program from C4 popping up on my continue watching, no idea what that is I've never watched it! I have to FF through to remove it, another daft solution all for a programmer to add a remove from option 🙄

 

Also - Please put continue watching at the top of the Playlist menu.....

Re: Playlist refresh now live.

@Anonymous I get the opposite, my most recent rail isnt moving about at all.

 

I have programmes that have come to an end and have no unwatched episodes yet are still sitting front and centre. 

 

Very odd. 

 

Continue watching is acting pretty much the same as play now for me, its progressing through a series as expected but i had a few programmes that iv watched appear this morning and had to FF to remove them.

@Jayboy1990  I'm having the same experience as you. Another inconsistency I've noticed is that if I playlist a show on the puck and go to the glass it may or may not show up in the most recent rail

@Deedee36 @Anonymous @Ed.B. @Freddieboy69 and any others. 

Could you please supply some images of what you see on screen in playlist. A brief explanation of what's happening, plus briefly what you expect. 

This will be a great help. Thanks

@Jayboy1990  Within the last hour the shows that was stuck in my recent and continue rails have disappeared and it's now as it should be 

Will keep an eye on it this evening and report any errors

Here Bangers & Cash constantly sits at the start of the most recent regardless of newer program episodes arriving. I watched B & C last Thursday so Top Gear etc. should now be ahead of it.

 

20221121_155925.jpg

Here the series runs 1 to 6, this should now be 6 to 1. Latest first.

 

20221121_155959.jpg

This pictures shows that the final episode has been viewed, so have earlier episodes but the blue lines have disappeared.

 

20221121_161318.jpg

The continue watching (please put it in the Playlist menu) is correct. Everything is up to date. But it evidences that B&C is viewed in full and Top Gear is next and so most recent rail should have TG ahead of B&C on most recent.

 

ALSO

 

B&C, haven't actually broadcast episode 13 yet, it is due for broadcast next Thursday at 8:00pm but it became available simultaneously with the episode 12 broadcast last Thursday. This has not happened previously in this series, each episode has only been made available after the broadcast. There is one final episode 14 to come so that may appear next Thursday when 13 airs or in 2 weeks, who knows?

 

I mention this as this anomaly may be causing the issue, but really it should still slip down the listing. As said I suspect a bug.

@Anonymous I have notice that the blue progress bars on stuff all ready watched seems to only last a day or 3 and go back to as if you have never watched it.I think once a show it watched the blue bar should change to a tick or some kind of marker indicating it had been watched

Yes I agree on BT the episode images are also identified with:

 

WATCHED

CONTINUE WATCHING

 

It wouldn't hurt if they said WATCH for new.
