Guide, wrap from last channel to first channel

When browsing the guide, it would be nice to wrap to the first channel after reaching the last channel (similar to FireTV Live TV which stops on last channel, but then next 'down' key press wraps to first channel)

No activity on this one, so thought I'd give it a bump.

Any chance of wrapping both the first-to-last and last-to-first entries when in the guide? I really miss this feature.
(On the first entry, wrap to last entry on up instead of going to the filter selection. Filter should be left press.)

Thanks.

Definitely need this.

Agreed. With 200+ channels, it’s tough to swipe all the way back through them to get to the beginning.

This is needed more than ever now with the addition of Pluto to the guide. I think between my cable card lineup, TVE, and now Pluto, I’m close to 500 stations!

It’s tough to have to scroll from the bottom of the guide all the way back to the top. It would be a nice option for it to loop.

Asked about this last year. Seems like it would be really simple to implement....

For those who are more tech savvy than I am, is there a logical reason why it doesn’t loop?

I too would love to see this implemented, just wasn’t sure if there was a good reason or limitation of the OS as to why it hasn’t been.

As a part time coder myself, I’ve learned over the years that it’s impossible to know how easy or hard something is until you’ve seen the code. Some requests I get seem like they should be really simple, and take hours and hours to figure out. Other things seem really hard and I’m done in 30 minutes. So we can’t really know how much effort it would really take to do this, only the developers do.
