They’re not fixing this, are they?

I don’t see how anyone could not consider it a deliberate decision to break Live TV with the New Experience launch. It didn’t work at all, they knew it and still pulled the trigger. That was the point I was trying to make.

My parents use Live TV quite a bit to setup recordings, they only have iPads these days, so it’s a constant question of when the guide data will be fixed so they can setup recordings.

I often travel with just my iPad and iPhone, and yes I can use a browser but it really shouldn’t be required at this point, 4 months down the track.

I’ve also just sat down to watch the football whilst I get some work done, and sure enough immediately got the “Error Occurred The operation couldn’t be completed CoreMediaErrorDomain” error…wonderful. So sadly not fixed properly in the 2025.22 beta update, fingers crossed for the next one.

I think it’s also reasonable to expect at least a little bit of Plex staff interaction on specific threads that are reporting feature blocking bugs, but perhaps I’m in the minority. For example - https://forums.plex.tv/t/live-tv-bug-list-feature-requests-for-new-experience/

PS - As for any expectation of feature and functionality/UX parity (or improvement) with the “Old Experience”…
