I've heard a couple people complain about it now but mine still looks the same as it has for years.

Someone at DTV sold AT&T management on this gawdawful new menu. How they agreed to change to this eye chart is hard to imagine.

Mine changed last Friday and it does look very similar to the way my daughters AT&T Fios menu looks.

Mine changed about 10 days ago, getting used to it, but not a fan.

Not good ... hard to read ... smaller font and weird black gray shadow at bottom ... no doubt some new guy had to justify his job.

I don't like the deleting programs process now. Use to be able to bring up menu to delete and check boxes of episodes to delete. Now I have to delete them individually. Unless I'm missing the option somewhere.

It makes it more difficult in your recorded shows too. Not a fan.

Looking for upcoming programs scheduled to record is not as easy as it was before.

Mine changed 2 weeks ago. Not a fan but worse than not being able to read it well it also locks up and is not responsive like before.

I also notice the font is smaller when you hit the info tab. Hell, I have to walk over to the tv just to read the fine print. I thought this 70" would be enough, I guess I was wrong.

It blows, the only thing worse is when you go into your DVR list and it enlarges whatever you have currently highlighted and it blocks whats above and below it so you scroll around blind. Millions of dollars in proof of concept, design, alpha testing, and everything else, and then complete crap.

I’m wondering what hardware the peeps have that are seeing a new guide format?
I refused to go Genie for years now, separate HD DVR for each room.
My guide has not changed.

My Genie boxes are the ones where the format has changed.

Agreed, having a hard time getting used to it. Hard to see what shows are recorded, and the episodes.

Also seems like its much slower toggling between recorded shows, etc... I have tried deleting some shows to free up some memory and that didnt help at all.
