Brian9200T: I can’t guarantee it does it for every series – or on every channel – but it certainly does it on the Monkey WorldLife series’s on pick. As well as crime stuff on ‘YourTv’.
It does the same for ‘Bones’ on 5USA, too.
And I like that you can skip right to the end of the recording of the episode you have watched to go straight to the next episode in the series.
Stephenesque: Are you saying you can jump straight to the end of an episode in a simple way? I have been dragging the recording time indicator to the end or exiting the episode and selecting the next in the series.

Dolby Digital Plus on Netflix if fantastic, slight picture stutter on certain Netflix scenes is a downer.
Speed to access Netflix is excellent.
Streaming to a tablet (or phone) is good. Lack of any apps on Amazon tablets is poor.
Ability to transfer recordings to another device to watch has been handy, although spoilt by certain limitations.
Very good Wi-fi performance.
Have you tried sideloading the app ?

No, I have not tried sideloading the app. I find the user manual very poor at explaining things. I took me a time to use ONDEMAND at all and the first thing I foumd was that it did not cover all channels and on the channels it did cover many programmes are excluded for copyright reasons. Trouble is that if the operating imstructions are not fairly straightforward I soon forget the. After a week I still often don’t know which button to press for Info.. In my opinion every step should be in the form….

You can’t jump straight to the end with one click, but I have my Skip Forward time set to 120 sec, so it usually takes fewer than 3 presses of the > button from the end credits of one episode to the start of the next.
I think the point is that if and when a recording reaches its end, the Humax automatically starts playing the next episode in the folder.
If you want to go forwards in a recording either
a) press F-FWD button multiple times to cycle through 2x, 4x, 8x, 32x and 64x as fast, or
b) press UP arrow to highlight the time bar and then press RIGHT arrow. The time marker will quickly move forwards.

Only If you have series play turned on.

More often than not I don’t have to press anything other than > to get the time bar up and set it running.
