New Telus Android Digital Boxes

Yesterday I installed the new REQUIRED Telus Android Digital boxes. Immediately i discovered the following ENHANCEMENTS.

  • all of my recordings and settings  are gone despite assurances recent would be retained
  • No way to size CC text on apps. Eg. Britbox CC is barely visible
  • Recording functions are severely limited
  • Cannot search for shows. Guide only provides 12 days)
  • No way to extend recording times for events such as auto racing which is frequently delayed
  • internet service is now lagging

And inresponse Telus Service has been horrible!

    Hi! Thanks for writing this feedback to us, we have a few manual workarounds to see if it fixes anything!

     

    For Captions: Launch the Britbox app directly. While a show is playing, press Down or Options on your remote to pull up the in-app video player settings. You must manually adjust the caption size inside the specific app's interface rather than the Telus menu.

     

    Recording Times:

    Navigate to your Recordings screen.
    Scroll over to Series or Scheduled.
    Select the event/show you want to modify and press OK.
    Select Change Settings.
    Scroll down to Stop Recording and change it from On Time to an extra 30, 60, or 120 minutes. Select Save Changes.

      Aren’t those record  time settings for the legacy 4K boxes, not the Android box?
