Disabling home screen on the new Telus Optik TV Android boxes

Hi,

 

Wondering if there is an option to disable/bypass the home screen when you turn on the Android box. I just want it to go straight to the last TV channel that I watched full screen.

  • Any progress on this? This feature would be great for my dad as he's a senior and this screen would confuse him.

    If you hold down the back button on the remote, it should dismiss the screen and return you to your last watched program. In terms of disabling/bypassing the screen entirely, our Optik dev team is working on it!

      Sorry for the double-post. Any progress on this? This feature would be great for my dad as he's a senior and this screen would confuse him.

      I’m also interested in having this feature disabled so I don’t have to use the back button. I like to just hit power and have the news come on.
      Thanks for working on the solution for this.
