    HI,

    Would be really interesting to be able to program different forward and backward jumps. (Z series)

    • To skip advertisements (jump forward 30 seconds)
    • To go back (jump backward 10 seconds) (It knows when you were a little too far with your jumps forward to pass ads) :face_with_tongue::face_with_tongue::face_with_tongue:

    If a channel is working or not isn't affected by this. What you are saying, that I wrote, is basically that everytime the provider fixes a channel that is down, i have have to manually reload the list. This is not the case. ChannellDs don't change when they are up or down.

    I'm 119% shure you'll not get any new channels, vod or series without updating manually on XC-login.

    I’m not talking about channels going down and coming back up again. Let me give you an example. My provider offers live feeds to currently ongoing events, on dedicated channels, that appear and disappear as soon as the provider can offer the event in question. So, for example, if a tennis tournament starts, my list will show me the channels for said tournament, and they’ll be disappearing when the tournament has finished, without me having to manually refresh the list or disconnect/reconnect to the portal. So I guess my behaviour is different than yours, alright, but I don’t think that’s down to the Formuler. That being said, I don’t know what would be causing the difference in behaviour. Anyway, if you want to continue the discussion, feel free to message me directly, as we aren’t supposed to be having this discussion on this thread...

    Hello,
new owner of a Z8 pro, I find it a shame to have such a fast zapping on mol2 and to have this black fade effect all over the top of the screen, would it be possible to have it only on the part of the description of the programs, or at least one option for setting the transparency percentage.
otherwise, I am very happy with the box and mol2.
thank you

    It would be nice if the following could be considered.

    We know already that we can hide TV channel sections / bouquets from the list. For example, if you don’t want to see channels from France, it can be hidden.

    If you create a favourite channel list, rename it and only want a few channels from the France bouquet, some from Spain, UK or wherever that can be done already but.....

    In order for these to be shown in your favourite bouquet, they MUST be present in your original channel list.

    It would be nice if you can still hide the section or country you don’t want to see in the main list but, allow the selected few channels you want as favourite to be present in your created favourites bouquet...

    I hope that made sense.

    One thing that I would like to get implemented is so that you could adjust the timing on downloaded subtitles. Sometimes when the subtitle isn´t the correct one it can be of with a few seconds so it would be nice to be able to adjust it + and - in time

    Hi

    It would be great to export/backup the channel groups so you could restore them if needed (e.g. after resetting the box)

    I assume that a lot if time is invested in these channel groups and al the work is gone after a reset

    Thank you

    I'd second this. I have 8 custom groups with about 100 entries total. PITA to start over.

    When I enter a static IP address, the entries are reset back to default when you choose for DHCP afterwards. I would like to see that all entered values for the static IP address (DNS entries as well) remain stored, so when you toggle between DHCP and static you do not have to re-enter all static IP entries again. Especially cumbersome when you choose alternative DNS addresses as well...

    This should be very easy to implement.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi. I love MOL2 but I noticed that along the categories (in the main menu) there are no numbers of the channels contained in each of them. Would it be possible to add this option in a future update? I attached a screenshot with an example of what I mean by that. thanks.

    Connections > Group Channel numbering > On/Off

    Hey, I'm desperate for a feature to turn off recording all together but keep timeshifting so you can still pause and rewind.

    For 1 connection users I worry that my dad will accidently record whilst watching. I also setup a new box for a family member and have told them to strictly not record or else they could be booted off.

    That's my only non basic user friendly thing I'd change

    Edited once, last by MK43587 (May 19, 2021 at 2:54 AM).

    Request for quality signal for DVB channels. For example on my old receiver I could press the info button twice and it would show 92% signal quality of the current channel I am watching. This would help me to move my antenna and get a better reception.

    Decent fast-forwarding/rewinding when using cloud timeshift and/or watching recordings. As things stand, you can only jump forward/backward a fixed (but configurable, thank god) amount of time. I would very much like it if you could also fast-forward/rewind continuously, by using the buttons marked as such on the remote. The arrows in the centre could then continue to be used for their current purpose (i.e. making the pre-configured jumps). I like the jumping very much for skipping things such as commercials, but they’re a downright pain in the rear end when actually searching for specific footage (i.e. when you don’t know where you need to be within a program (either on cloud timeshift or in a recording)).

    I have the new BETA for Z series and it’s a good improvement.

    I wonder if it will be possible to move the icons on the Home Screen particularly for the new feature of recent content

    For example on GTV / Android TV, let’s say you have YouTube favourites, MTOL favourites on Home Screen, you can move either of those up and down so YouTube can be first and MTOL second or the other way round

    (I hope I’m explaining properly, once you see it you’ll know)

    On Z8 you have your normal apps at the top and I use locker so have than underneath and then the new recent channels under that

    So it would be good to move the “locker” and have the recent channels underneath your apps?

    Hello 2 everyone!

    Did someone:thinking_face: lost the audio on the box. Nothing work even with live tv or vod or any other application that I have is working.

    You can see everything but no audio!!

    Any help it will be appreciated!

    I would like to have the possibility to add a second EPG to my Xtream Portal to fill the gaps in the EPG which my provider has. And of course then manually assign the EPG to the channels (because external EPGs often have different IDs for the channels, so I would p.e. assign the EPG ID "channel_A.de" to my providers ID "chA").
