My immediate reaction is that it seems like using the guide will finally be a pleasant experience.
ETA: Search in the guide is awesome.

I'm so glad this has been released. I actually kind of had a way of looking at this beforehand. I just happened to catch it before it was locked down, and it looked so freaking awesome, even early on.
Then it was locked down, and I was able to find a way to periodically check up on how beautiful it was becoming. I'm just so glad you guys released it. It's a really amazing piece of work, and you should all be very proud of the accomplishment.
Yes, I will look into it.

I am so used to the current AdminUI, and many pages fit very well and easy to ready when zoomed in.
This new version, sleeker, but some pages are hared to see, smaller text or logos and things, Have to increase zoom to see it.
Still have to get used to it.
Bit more clicks and navigation than I am used to for accessing settings.
why won't the icon populate when i bookmark the new server ui pages?
And, where is the Recordings page? DVR, Manage? To see a list of recordings.
I see a calendar view of upcoming recordings, but not the list view i want like the old UI.
Oh, I found a slight bug with the V2 interface.
So, when adding a custom channel collection, there's no way I can find to take all channels in a specific source and add them to that channel collection. Like, I have my DirecTV M3U from Fast Channels as a source, and I like to just add them all to one DirecTV collection so I can easily see everything coming from DirecTV. And there's no way to just add all the channels in one fell swoop, which was in the previous interface.
I was wondering the same thing too.
There are a few posts above that mention it but I like pictures:
no that not the same. does not show just and only Recordings, that shows other things in my library that are Recently Added. No filter there to only show recordings.
I think the old commercial editor made more effective use of the screen realestate.

This screen isn't built yet
It's coming as the rewrite progresses.
Ah so maybe it not done yet then
No, Manage was replaced by Library. It’s explained further up in this thread.
It effectively does everything managed did before and more.
As for v2 and playing with Firefox, here's what I found.
If it doesn't start playing
open the PIP view and you'll see it's paused. Hit play or skip ahead.

The Green Dot indicator in the Guide and other places when u pull up a repeat episode of something you have recorded.
In the previous UI, it meant it was Recorded, and when u open the details, it says that, with a dropdown menu to Mark as not recorded or Record again.
This is something i recorded before, but have deleted the recording long ago.
New UI, says In Your Library, and clickable, but gives a blank box page. No options as the old UI.
U can click the normal Record button, for a one time record.
I've barely started playing around with the interface, but so far from a visual standpoint I love it (especially being able to apply custom themes). Hoping some of this polish will make it over to the client side. The changes last year were great but still could use some love to make it look even nicer!

Good find. I don't see a way to mark as not recorded anywhere in the new UI.
We need that!
Oh yeah. I see that if I go to PIP and actually start playing that I can take it back to the original window:
and then the control bar is there at the bottom:
I do see the nifty gear tab in the lower right of the playback window that allows the user to select the playback quality. Is there a way to lock down the quality at the server level for the web interface? I see the setting in 'advanced,' but even the old interface didn't really seem to honor it.

It's honoring the advanced setting for me.
spacebar also works in pip and after toggling pip.
this was Channels DVR Extras chrome extension
