Episodes redesign, comments and suggestions (Page 2 of 8)

I will happily give you feedback if you want (and let me test it)

Hi,

So after a bit of testing a few things I've noticed are :

1. Like the person before me said, it would be nice to have the option to ignore whole seasons. For me personally, the ignore option is useful for shows like One Piece where I don't intend on watching over 1000 episodes. But clicking on each and every one of those episodes to ignore them can be time consuming.

2. I've noticed that even though I ignore episodes on the website, in the iOS application it still shows that I have 1000+ episodes to watch (in the case of One Piece).

3. On the phone/tablet while using the website now it's way easier to mark episodes watched. Before I had to be careful not to click on the little line next to the following episode for example, but now everything is cleaner. I'm curious how it holds up in the future.

Thank you for you work!

I have to agree, it's currently taking up too much space.  Phones are almost always vertical, so height of items isn't really an issue, but laptops are wide-screen, so height does matter.

Also, on the main page I have images turned off (Options -> Simplify those lists (no images and 1 row per item)), so wouldn't want to see images on this page either.

Suggestions would be:
- Move the "set tag | set service | stop tracking" to the right hand side in the same header element as the show title.
- Move both show tags and search tags to right hand and reduce height

Ok, so now I had some time to check it out and have some feedback.

- Looks and feels very good.
- Takes waaaay to much space hegithwise, needs at least a third of the height and maybe use two columns
- Ignore show or a ignore all
- Header row is inefficient, to much empty space
- Make use of each row to minimize height, to much waste with empty space

I'm also up for the new layout, but at the same time I would be good with old look and IGNORE funktion

Really good work!! I'm a suporter for life!!

Let’s go!

I'd like to try it out.

Agree with some of the feedback about so much white space. However, I LOVE how big the Watched button is now. Some of us have old/bad eyes, and trying to touch the eensy little button from the current version could be tough. This is a great change.

Generally speaking, I like the update but agree with the requests to maybe tighten it up a little bit.

I would love to try it out!

While I like the addition of the Ignore function, you took away the ability to filter only / not show Acquired / Not acquired. For those that actually use that feature, I would think they'd want the filter back.
Likewise, in the Manage Ignored system, I think it would be good to see/select the Acquired status as well.

Aside from the missing Ignore Season option mentioned above, I would like to see an Ignore Specials option within the show itself. I don't want to hide all Specials Sitewide, but I want to hide specials for *most* shows.
For instance, I just manually hid the ~100 specials of Yellowstone, one by one. Being able to one-click that away would be nice to have.

I really like that the episode disappears immediately without a refresh when I hit the ignore (and watched) button, even though it meant I needed to to it from the bottom up because waiting for it to animate the slide away and move the next episode up took too long and annoyed me.

I would agree with the others that there's way too much white space in the new setup.
I mean, although I understand the need for it so I can't really begrudge you doing it, the new layout basically epitomizes what I hate about today's touch-screen designed website UIs. Everything designed for fat fingers on small screens takes up several times too much space for those of us that use a computer and mouse.
That being said, I can certainly appreciate that this big button is far easier to hit than the tiny minus [-] before.

It may just be a dinosaur problem, but before I used to be able to have a proper overview of a show's episodes, but at my preferred font size for this site (120%) I'm now only seeing about 10 episodes, and have to scroll up and down to see the rest. At a quick glance it looks it's about 3x fewer episodes per screen "page".

Like I said, I understand the need. I just don't have to like it.

To jump on that idea:

Maybe add an "Understood" button on the right side of "How to Use". Once you are familiarized with the functionality you can click on it and it disappears.

Add an option to reactivate it in the settings and also if a new function like "Ignore" gets added the "How to Use" appears again and you can click "Understood" once you are familiarized.

Looks super, would be delighted to give it a try. thanks
