Has the sort order on the Recorded tab changed?

In the past, when looking at the Recorded tab, shows that had been recorded recently would show up at the beginning of the All Recordings list.
Now, it seems to be mostly in alphabetical order (on Windows 10 version 20250430).

Mind you, this did not happen with all shows even in the past. I often ...

Recent and Upcoming Views

I've tried out the new Recent and Upcoming views, and they seem fine.

Upcoming : I like the ability to separate upcoming recordings from already recorded show, so this is a win.

Recent : i can see the utility for some people. It's a worthy addition, but sadly, it won't really help me. I am ...

Re: Sorting Episodes


We are adding two new modes - Recent and Upcoming..


OK. In another thread, you wrote: "Thinking Recent would include 1 upcoming followed by the most recently recorded (max 20 or 30?) in descending order by time.".

We have over 200 episodes of NOVA from about 12 seasons. It would be great to be ...

Sorting Episodes

Hi Nick,

You wrote: "We are discussion possible sort modes for shows where the season/episode order doesn't matter."

I am very interested in hearing about how this feature would work, since that is my main issue with the new UI.
While I'm dreaming, I would love to see the ability to search within ...

Re: HDHomeRun UI (20250314) feedback



Like others, I have issues with this. HDHomeRun UI is not a streaming service. It is a DVR and a media repository.
For example, I record "Great Performances at the Met", for which I have a large number of recordings. Some are multiple recordings of the same opera with different casts.
I used to ...

Re: HDHomeRun UI (20250314) feedback

I am also of a mixed mind about the new interface, which is now 20250315.
Clearly a lot of work has gone into this UI, and it's pretty.


We don't plan to offer sort options for the episode view. The goal is to be less like a spreadsheet and more like the streaming services people are used to ...

Re: Populating HDHomeRun Metadata - PowerShell Script


Not sure this is needed as mcebuddy should handle the metadata in the correct format for the hdhrdvr by itself.


Yes and no.
Mcebuddy does insert some basic metadata so that the program shows up in the HDHomeRun front-end.
However, the limitations are:
Each recording gets a new gray block with ...

Populating HDHomeRun Metadata - PowerShell Script

[I had posted this on the DVR software forum, but this seems to be a more appropriate place for it.]

This post is for folks who would like to bring in external recordings into the HDHomeRun environment.
