Am I missing something on the new app?

Legacy Tablo here trying the new generation Tablo app after the firmware update. Pretty interface, but slow performance compared to the old app. More importantly the new app does not show if there are unwatched versions of a recording on the tiles. Or am I missing something here? Seems like such a simple but necessary indicator. How do you know if there are new recordings to watch without this?

Hi @ajaxthedog89,

Under each series thumbnail you should see how many shows are recorded and how many of these are new.

There’s also a Latest category in the main library window which should show what’s recently been added.

Mine isn’t working properly I guess. Here’s what the new app and the legacy app show for /almost/ the same recordings. New app doesn’t show anything about unwatched, just a blank.
It seems the tiles are sorted differently too.


It looks like you’re using the Samsung app which uses an older 4th Gen interface.

We do have a 4th App Beta program, which you might be interested in: SIGN UP - Join the 4th Gen Tablo Beta Team!

Actually its an LG tv running web OS. TV is about 6 months old, new model, and I just downloaded and installed the tablo app so its not old.

If you select one of the series, does it show which recordings are new on the landing screen?

Unfortunately no it does not. This show, DI Ray, has 6 unwatched recordings. Nothing on either screen to indicate that.


Perhaps helpful information.
