    Re: VUDU Version 1.4 Sighting

    I see 1.4 will be out next week. I guess I've been getting weekly VUDU update emails. I didn't realize it. But the one dated the 11th says that software version 1.4 will be out next week with "..many significant enhancements.."

      I can't tell you what 1.4 has but some of it is pretty cool. I can tell you it does not have external storage. So don't get your hopes up on that...

        Re: VUDU Version 1.4 Sighting

        This is what the email said. I assume I'm allowed to post it since it's a newsletter.

        Dear VUDU Community,

        In the coming week, you will receive Software Version 1.4. This release delivers many significant enhancements to your service. Most notably, we have expanded the organization of the user interface to give you better tools for searching for titles and managing your content. The changes are outlined below.

        First, an update about some great new content:

        Tuesday, we introduced a new partner, Scholastic. Scholastic is a global children's publishing, education and media company that has been helping children learn to read for 87 years upon the belief that literacy is the cornerstone of a child's intellectual, personal and cultural growth. Our smallest viewers may now choose from dozens of wonderful classic Scholastic stories.

        Among them:
        Blueberries for Sal
        A Boy, a Dog & a Frog
        Corduroy
        Emily's First 100 Days of School
        The Emperor's New Clothes
        Harry the Dirty Dog
        How Do Dinosaurs Eat Their Food?
        The Journey of the One & Only
        Declaration of Independence
        Ralph S. Mouse
        Reading to Your Bunny
        Stanley & the Dinosaurs

        To view more Scholastic titles, visit the collection called "Introducing Scholastic" on the Find Movies screen.

        There Will Be Blood. Available to own this weekend. Nominated for 8 Academy Awards including Best Motion Picture and Best Director, Paul Thomas Anderson's powerful film won Oscars for cinematography and for its star, Daniel Day-Lewis. Among its many creative legacies is a haunting score by Radiohead's Jonny Greenwood.

        Juno. Available to own April 15th. Juno's first-time screenwriter Diablo Cody won the Oscar for this offbeat and endearing story of a high-schooler thrown into circumstances "beyond her maturity level." Juno earned 4 Academy Award nominations including Best Motion Picture, Director (Jason Reitman), and lead actress (Ellen Page).

        Software Version 1.4. Re-organization of user interface:

        VUDU Home. This screen now contains the following buttons: Most Watched, New on VUDU, Explore Catalog, My VUDU, and Info & Settings.

        Most Watched. This feature remains unchanged. It lists, in order of their ranking, the top 100 movies rented or purchased the previous week on the service.

        New on VUDU. When you select this button, you will be taken into another screen which contains four buttons: New to Rent (titles newly available to rent on the service), New to Own (titles newly available to purchase), All New Titles (all titles new to the service in the last 30 days, for rental or purchase), and Coming Soon (titles coming to the service within 30 days).

        Explore Catalog. When you select this button, you will be taken into another screen which contains five buttons. Some of these buttons are familiar to you: Explore Genres, now called Explore by Genre, and Search by Title, Actor or Director.

        Two more search tools are new:

        Explore HD (allows you to scroll through high-definition content) and Explore TV Shows (allows you to scroll through television shows).

        My VUDU. This screen expands upon what was previously My Movies. It has the following buttons to help you better view and manage your content: My Rentals (your active rentals on the service), My Movies (movies you own only), My TV Shows (your purchased TV shows), My Wish List (titles you?d like to rent or buy down the road), and Archive or Delete (all your titles grouped for easy archiving or deletion).

        You may notice that the films strip at the bottom of My VUDU now features "Movies You Might Like." This enhancement, still in Beta, recommends titles based on your rental history.

        We hope you find these enhancements valuable. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any feedback or questions.

        With kind regards,

        The VUDU Team

          Yup. That's pretty much it that a current user will see. The interface is definitely improved and takes a lot of things you guys have asked for into account. I think you will like it.

          How'd you get on this mailing list? I'm not. I'll have to get on it.

            aaronwt,

            I cleaned up the newsletter that was mailed out that you posted. Fonts and fancy single/double quotes get all messed up on the board.

            Thanks for posting...I think everyone is going to enjoy the update....

                Let's just put it this way - there is a number of suggestions from customers/users on these forums that have made their way into 1.4. As has been shown in the posted newsletter, there's UI changes. And there's a few other tweaks to improve the customer experience.

                The isn't a 1.3.5.

                  I've never seen that before... Wonder when they added it?

                      If he can be Skeeterfood you need to change you name to HeadHodge to match your avatar.

                        I registered the skeeterland.com domain shortly after I moved to Minnesota. If you've never been here, this the land of 10,000 lakes and and at least that many mosquitoes per lake! Hence skeeterland. I think my avatar clearly shows the humans position in this environment, Skeeterfood!

                              I hate to ruin a perfectly good off tangent discussion, but I thought I'd chime in that my Vudu is now sporting Software version 1.4

                              I like the updates, though the suggestion logic needs a little work. If I've watched the HD version of something, I probably don't want to watch the SD version and vice versa...
