[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] SilentlyScreaming:
Would I be right in assuming you'll not be releasing a WinMo 6.x version? If you get a moment, and you have any experience, could you recommend something for those of us who haven't yet got a WP7 device.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] alex2364:
I like the UI of your app a lot but I noticed a quirk. When there are shows available next week, the shows are listed as "this week." This week would mean the week it's currently in. I think it would make better sense to use the term "next week".
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello ! The time is already converted in YOUR local time (I'm not american, so I watch also over the internet ;))
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Yes, in this version "this week" = 7 next days.

A settings has been added in the 1.4 in order to select :

- today, tomorrow, this week (monday to sunday), next week

- today, tomorrow, 7 next days,14 next days

- today, tomorrow, saturday, sunday, monday, etc...

So you can select how you want to organize your tv show.

I will make a post this week end with all the new features (a lot !!) in the 1.4 version (available tuesday/wednesday)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
The new feature of the 1.4 version :

- facebook integration

- News for each tv shows (in addition to news on the home)

- Possibility to change wallpapers for tv shows (manual or automatic

(the app gives you a list of wallpaper relative to your tv show, but you

can also add a picture from your phone))

- A menu to sort the series A to Z

- an adjustment to manage the list "following"

- today, tomorrow, Thurday, Friday, etc. ... (new)

- today, tomorrow, 7 next days,14 next days

or

- today, tomorrow, this week, next week (current)

- TVSpoiler feeds

- a new list in the home page : "last unseen" (show the unseen episodes of the last 10 days)

- customize the 'episode number format' : S02E02, 2x02, Season 2 Episode 2, 2-02, etc...

All this is implemented, I test this WE and release the update sunday or monday :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nok_fusion:
great works !!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RancoR2k:
Hey

Looking forward to version 1.4, sound great! :)

Got also some additional feedback for you:

- improve performance of show-list (I've got 30+ shows and its getting pretty slow)

- setting to hide shows from list, where all episodes were watched

- possibility to mark shows/seasons as unseen

- import/export show list/ seen episodes, in case you have to hard reset your phone (or perhaps a cloud service to sync your account?)

guess that's it for the moment, hope you might consider adding at least some of this in future versions.

again, thanks for the great app!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sayonical:
The live tile is working for me...today I have 5 shows all at the same time 0_O I need a DVR!

The tile shows 2 of the five upcoming shows! :-D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello guys !

I'm a little late because I was selected for a development competition, so my week has been charged. That said the 1.4 is finished, but I still had a test day to do the last round of problems.

So very soon!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] woozie91:
Cool ^^ Will try it
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
Hiya,

loving this app but I have one suggestion/request:

currently if the day has passed I need to go down in my list, select the show and only then can I mark the episode as seen. Will this also work from within the "last unseen" part you are referring to in version 1.4?

Also scrolling in the list is rather laggy/slow (I have a lot of shows)

thanks!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
I really love this app! I have a couple feature suggestions.

For the Live Tile, I think it would be very helpful to have a count of not only the number of unwatched shows, but also the number of shows with a new episode on

that night

. It would have to reset the count of the upcoming shows every night (midnight seems to make sense to me)... so at midnight, the live tile would update to tell you how many shows you haven't watched and also how many you should expect to watch that day.

Also, I think the 'This Week' and "Next Week" listings should show you all of the shows from Sunday through Saturday this week and next week instead of using just the next 7 days. Even after the day has passed, it should still show all the shows from this week and next... until Sunday, where it would reset to show the next coming 2 weeks. Just makes more sense in my opinion.

Great job with this app. Well worth the $0.99.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
This is EXACTLY the TV app I've been looking for! I downloaded the lite version, but I knew within 5 minutes that I wanted to get the full version (which I did).

A couple of suggestions for new sorting options on the organize screen:

1) a button/menu selection to alphabetize your list of shows

2) a button/menu selection to optionally group your shows by either category (drama, comedy, sci-fi, reality, etc.) or network

And, on the main mytvshow screen (to complement the grouping idea), it would be nice to have the ability to either filter by or jump to a group (OK, I have a lot of shows, too :D).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello, yes it's in the 1.4 with a lot of new features !

As I said earlier, I was selected for a development competition, so I did not finish my testing and debugging of the 1.4 this week. It should arrive in the coming days, do not worry;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello :

1) It's already possible, do a long click the "tvshow" title on the main page, and select "Sort alphabetically" (I am right now trying to refine the sorting by drag and drop;)

2) Good idea, I keep this idea for the next version ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
I can't see that option in my version (the about screen shows that I have 1.2). The only item that pops up in the menu is "organize".
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello, I have implemented this feature in the version 1.3 (long click on the title "tvshow", not in ONE tvshow.

Tuesday will be a big big day with TVShow 2.0.

an innovative UI (in my opinion it may well please you), pioneering features. Without saying too much, I think you appreciate it!

Reminder:

TVShows version 1 has innovated in many areas in the past:

- a real live tile updated daily without relaunch the app: not yet the case of concurrent applications)

- management subtitles : only TVShow

- Management recaps (full summary of an episode) : only tvshow

- Translation of the summary : only tvshow

- images from the episodes : only tvshow

- The possibility of significant episodes not seen or seen (it starts to get better in others;)) : only tvshow

- local broadcast time for US citizen of their states

- the only app with real local time (concurrents doesn't manage daylight saving time for your local position and from the origin country)

Version 2 will also hugely innovative, but for that we will have to wait until Tuesday;)

Just to please you, I have implemented 100% of functionality that I have been asked by private message;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] pencilcase:
sounds great but i am not even getting the update notification for 1.3 no matter what i try right now :(

I would reinstall the app but i don't want to re-add all my shows over and over again... i would really appreciate a backup functionality :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wheresmybeaver:
FYI I think version 1.3 still shows up as 1.2 in the Info screen in the app

Anyway version 2 is on the way (start of next week) which will cover off a lot of the requests many people have had. We shall see!

Thanks to the developer for all the hard work, it's looking very good
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
@pencilcase : backup is in progress ;)

For information, your problem doesn't depend on me...

It is a known bug in Windows phone 7. Look at this link: http://mobilitydigest.com/the-live-tile-debacle-and-a-solution-sort-of/

The current limit of 15 applications using the push, but sometimes the counter doesn't decrement...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
(for information, one of my online source for recaps and images has changed its website, so don't worry, recaps and images will be back tuesday ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
wow! very nice app. is there a way we could get all upcoming shows, not just new ones, maybe as a separate frame? But i will definitely buy this app!

When will we see 1.4?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello !

The 1.4 will be the 2.0 and will be available end of week (currently in beta test).

Why 2.0 and not 1.4? Because there are plenty of new features and a new UI. I listened to your requests and all will be in this new version. I can not say too much, to keep the surprise, but of course, there is a new way to follow the upcoming episodes with a dedicated interface.

So a little patience, the early returns are very positive, I correct a few things and it should be good.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
awesome! ill be looking forward to seeing that update. and also thank you for a working live tile!!!!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Live tile ? There will be several type in the 2.0, you will have the choice;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] behh:
my question has been answered ./
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
Has your server gone down for live tiles? Mine is no longer updating.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Sorry for the delay, I ate too much 'toast' this we ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] nat45928:
so is push back up? i still cant enable.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] DioNNiS:
Can I add my own TV show to the app?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
yes you can ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] alex2364:
Wasn't there suppose to be an update a while ago?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Good news : end of the beta, TVShow 2.0 will be available monday !

Facebook, Twitter, Messenger, new design, live tile choice, toast, news by show, very high performance, back up on cloud, etc... :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Saux64:
can't wait to try it :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Awesome. Is the feature to add your own shows upcoming or is it in already?

I'm just looking to add that new Super Sentai Gokaiger. I noticed the old Sentai shows were in there but not the newest one :P

Also I'm kind of new to it all, what is toast exactly?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
I study the possibility to do this in a 2.5 version. Toast gives you a warning (like a sms alert) even when not using your phone, to tell you that episode will be aired soon
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
I'm curious, where are you pooling all the data from?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
tvrage and thetvdb ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
How do I go about downloading the update by the way? I'm still new to WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
TVShow 2.0 is available in 2 hours (the time that the marketplace updates) ;)

New features :

- facebook integration

- twitter integration

- news by show

- calendar view

- 3 sort of live tile : normal, picture of a show, mix

- Toast : 5-15 minutes before a show, you will receive a toast, event if the application is not launched

- messenger

- new UI

- backup system : by mail or on cloud

- etc...
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
I was wondering why I couldn't see the update until I realized Canadian marketplace probably updates later right?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Yes, The update is currently in deployment, it can take between 2 and 6 hours ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Dude I gotta give you mad props for this app. I just downloaded the 2.0 update and this thing is not only amazing but it's also exactly what I needed. Thanks a bunch for this app.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] xc68000:
nice app thanks dude
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
Just got the update, and I LOVE IT!

I hope you're still looking into a way to allow grouping of shows by category (network, type of show, etc). That would be an awesome addition.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
for the 2.2 ;-)

it is necessary that I keep a few surprises for the future!

But have you noticed that you could sort the tv shows? a long click on a tv show and click on the menu "organize"

;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
That was the first thing I did after the update downloaded! :D

I also really like the new Toast and "Show of the day" live tile features too.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] behh:
i thought u lost a race with prime tv, but no. v 2.0 is simply one of the best ,most polished ,fluent and complex app i have tested. Subtitle thing maybe a gimmick but works great, is original and has polish language ! Really dev you are a genius!!

ps. great work with live tile, because it really works , and is a beauty
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
for information, the toast takes into account your personal offset (for us citizen and us tv shows) now !
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
if you like, I can give you the localisation file of tvshow to add polish !
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
and for the race, sorry about the delay, the 2.0 should have been out there 's 2-3 weeks, but I won a development contest with an other application ('Fuse' a design rss reader, available soon)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] sayonical:
Great update! Imagine my surprise when I got a toast that "Outsourced" starts in 9 mins!

I haven't have a chance to play with the app yet but so far the live tile + Toasts are a welcomed addition :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] singularity0821:
This app is getting better and better. Awesome update!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Random otv show live tile is awesome. I found myself adding old shows just for the sake of having their picture pop up once in a while.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tsabasid:
Really great work on the 2.0 version. Though it lags a little bit with the 20 shows I loaded .Btw where is this subtitle function?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] gian89:
where is the download?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] singularity0821:
Just search the Marketplace for TVShow. ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Hello 2.1 has been submitted with a little trick in listbox, so your listbox will be less laggy ;)

For subtitle, select a episode and slide to left, it's the last panel of the Pivot ;)

Rudy
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tsabasid:
Thank you. It's nice to see the developers to really care about their apps issues,and be as much as "hands on" as you :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] alex2364:
I tried to update to 2.1 and there is a problem with it. It said something about a license error?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
There is nothing about "license" in TVShow, perhaps a marketplace message.

Good news : Today TVShow is "app of the day" in some country and passed the 14,000 users, so I have a surprise for you with a 2.2 version with new features (available wednesday)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wheresmybeaver:
Just gotta say, the version 2 upgrade was amazing. Well done. This app pretty much covers everything!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Thanks !

The 2.2 has been submitted, available in less than 20 hours ;-)

new features :

- support for trakt.tv comments and rating as requested

- Twitter tags optimisation (Doctor Who : #DW --> #DoctorWho, but Desperate Housewives == #DH)

- minor fixes

- support gift code (you will have some information later)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] eizsoft:
wow this ap is amazing and very useful, very good design :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] madmax1379:
Hi,

THE TV Show Lite 2.0 Is perfect.... I Would like buy the TV Show for the live title, but i've got 1 problem :

I like : smallville no problem, Vampire Diaries : no problem, But for Sanctuary and Chuck, the episode finish to 11 for sanctuary but the 13 is out .... and 20 for chuck the 24 is out yesterday for chuck.... why the episode don't appear in the list ?

Edit : I delete sanctuary, and chuck, I Re enter them and now it's ok !

I Like TV Show Lite ;) Perfect job.

I just buy TV show, the live title is perfect ;)

Sorry for my english,

Best regards.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wheresmybeaver:
Great stuff, just started using trakt.tv in th elast few weeks actually, this is great to see.

If you really wanted to blow some minds you might consider integration with sickbeard; ie you could retrieve a users list of TV Shows from their sickbeard list, and perhaps further integration such as shows recently downloaded, backlog management etc... although in fairness I doubt there are really that many WP7 users also using sickbeard, we might put this on the wishful-thinking list ;-) actually now that I think about it, a dedicated Sickbeard WP7 app would rock!!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Strutten:
I love the app, but no mather what I do, the live tile does not work. I have no problems at all with other live tiles, just this one... Any ideas?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
I will work on it :D
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
Send me an email via the application, I can't debug without your id ;-)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
I doubt sickbeard would be allowed in the marketplace by Microsoft. I imagine that using it violates quite a few copyright laws.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wheresmybeaver:
Well of course any app that physically downloads from a P2P network or other filesharing server directly to the device is not going to pass certification. But sickbeard doesn't download any copyrighted material, it's a manager, it violates nothing. And the WP7 app itself would purely just be a http interface for sickbeard, like any of the dozen or so uTorrent or SABnzbd UI apps available on the WP7 marketplace for more than 6 months now. So I don't see an issue.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
From the sickbeard web site:

But even without that ability, it takes some serious ethical blinders to argue that it doesn't support and encourage piracy, even if it is only tacit support. The content it "manages" could not exist without illegal distribution of copyrighted material.

If the developer of TV Show wants to add sickbeard support, that is his business. But if that happens, I hope he at least offers a refund to people, because I want no part of software that is in any way involved in piracy.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
I didn't know sickbear, but I think that I agree with your opinion.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] singularity0821:
Is there a way to refresh/reload TV show icons that are broken (half grey)? Deleting and adding it again doesn't help.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Strutten:
you've got mail!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] wheresmybeaver:
You can elaborate on the pedantics as much as you like (matter of fact Sickbeard does not download any TV episodes itself, it passes information along to uTorrent or sabNZBD) but the fact of the matter is that Microsoft currently allows apps connected to filesharing such as uTorrent and SabNZBD, so there is no reason why they would not allow Sickbeard too.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] rudyhuyn:
In the settings, you have a button "remove file", use it ;)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] singularity0821:
Oh hehe, thanks :)
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] zisisgr:
great job!really good looking app, fast & slick. all i want is trakt.tv sync!!!plz!!
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tuskooo:
First of all, amazing app, thanks for your work!

One suggestion: scrolling in episodes list can be very laggy at series with many episodes, is this a common problem? A possible solution: showing only the last season or adding a function to show/hide seasons. Could you do something like that?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
A couple of days ago I had to hard reset my phone (added 16GB to my Focus), and I used the awesome backup to cloud feature.

After I reinstalled the app, and restored from the cloud, everything was perfect, except that a few of the shows in my list didn't reflect the correct number of "already seen" episodes. Most were fine, but a few of them indicated that I had seen none of the episodes. Not a big problem to deal with, but I thought you'd want to know.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Could anyone with the App try to add the show Person of Interest to your list of shows? No matter how many times I try to add it, it never appears and I'm wondering if the problem is on my end or not.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] fluffedup2:
Valaris: I just replicated the bug. I also cannot add the show "Person of Interest" and have it displayed in the list of shows I'm following.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Thanks! Now I know I don't have to reinstall.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
I'm not sure it's a bug though. Since the show hasn't aired yet (and no episode schedule has been published), it may not be possible to add it to your list yet. Other new shows may be in a different state in the online database that TVShow uses, so they may work correctly.

I would wait and try again closer to September. It will most likely work fine by then.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] valaris:
Makes sense. I just thought it was weird since I could add the other shows that got announced at the same time but maybe those are just more updated.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] alex2364:
Anyone notice the app crashes sometimes when it's in the social setting page? Also, I added my Facebook account to it, but it seems like there's no way to delete the Facebook account. I deleted the app on Facebook's website, but it's still trying to search for it in the social settings page.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] danmoz98:
I'm sorry, what? This is the site that modifies the operating systems for mobile phones belonging to mega corporations and distributes them for others? How is that any less of a grey area?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] Peew971:
What is sickbeard?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
It's a web site/service/application that facilitates illegally downloading and/or viewing copyrighted TV shows (mostly from newsgroups).
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] danmoz98:
But you're happy using this site? You don't mind that there are modified ROMS of phone OS's distrbuted through here? That doesn't affect your moral compass?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
I don't pay to use this site, nor do I read or contribute to any discussions that involve illegal activity. I come here to learn and share information regarding WP7 and its features, legal apps, and the future of the OS.

I did pay for TV Show in the WP7 Marketplace, so I believe I have a right to comment on whether the app should or should not be modified to encourage illegal activity. Savvy?

Sorry if my moral compass makes you so uncomfortable. I would suggest that you place me on your ignore list if it eases your own conscience.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] danmoz98:
Are you also against PVR's?

Seriously, of all the things to get upset about, this isn't really it.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] RoboDad:
PVRs (or DVRs, as they are more commonly called) are legal. Downloading copyrighted content from torrents and other unauthorized sources is a crime. Seriously, not being able to understand the difference between those two concepts is baffling.

But again, I encourage you to put me on your ignore list, because my moral compass isn't going to change any time soon, and you are clearly disturbed by that fact.
