But then if you watch weekly you would need to scroll through every episode you had already watched? And what about series where you wouldn’t watch every episode in order ?
If your suggestion was “For those of us that like to binge watch it would be handy to have an setting to default to the oldest unwatched recording ” then I might agree with you.
Firstly, if you choose to watch episodes in a random order then there is no way for the PVR to identify which should be highlighted and therefore highlighting the earliest would still be valid. Secondly, when I have watched an episode I delete that episode so I have no need to scroll through episodes. A setting to default to the earliest episode would achieve what I have suggested.
