    New feature request / Wishlist

    I'd like to start a New feature request / Wishlist thread.

    Here's mine.

    Add custom and % available bandwidth setting.

    This will provide customers with a higher download bandwidth limit (10mb, 20mb, 30mb, etc.) the ability to set the Vudu box download limit above the current 4mb.

    Example: (if my download speed is 20mb)
    I'd set my Custom setting for 15mb limit or set percentage for 85% of available bandwidth.

    This will enable us to download HDX movies faster.

              That would be so sweet. In fact, I'd love to see SlingPlayer built right in - Then my VUDU gives me live TV & DVR, net video, and VOD all in one.

                  I absolutely want this feature as well. I have a load balancing router my brother setup and why not take advantage of 80 megs upload after all do realize the advantage to Voodoo. I wonder if the Hard drive they use is Server Grade though? I may smoke my Voodoo and give it a very early death unfortunately . Otherwise there is no downside.

                        -Customizable 'favorite actors' list. They've got something similar on a lot of digital music download sites (for artists & labels).

                        -Some way to expand the description bar when it cuts off the name of a character, under the actor's name ("Christian Bale: Bruce Wayne /...")

                        -Option to rate movies watched at any time, from the box--not just right after finishing the movie.

                        -Aspect Ratio listed in description

                        -Video test pattern

                        -'Last updated' date listed under 'system info'

                        -easily-enabled 'lock' function to prevent accidentally watching or purchasing/renting a movie [dropping the remote, falling asleep & rolling onto it, pets, etc.)

                        -discounted purchase of movies still in the 'extended rental' period

                        -ability to manually delete movies from 'my rentals' (either before or after watching

                        -archival of [more? don't know if any allow it] movies

                        -external storage, of course (current archival option would be fine if this was finished)

                        -gift cards, electronic or physical, available on website & in stores, respectively

                          Agree 100%...I've specifically mentioned in the past the ability to buy Vudu Bucks (movie credits) for someone else, and the ability to delete rentals.

                          You can rate movies if you have the latest software, just hold down "More" for a couple of seconds.

                          Some movies do allow archiving, but it's up to the licensor whether Vudu is allowed to offer it. Sucks, but not something Vudu can control.

                          I use the parental controls because I am a parent, but it has also saved me from accidentally making purchases when it turned out that both Vudus in my house were on the same frequency. Have you tried turning on the parental controls for purchases for all ratings?

                            Didn't know that. Good deal.


                            I've got them enabled to prevent me from deleting stuff, but not buying. I guess that would work.

                              A funny story from the early days of Vudu and an example of responsiveness to customer requests:

                              If you look at the confirmation screen when purchasing or renting, "Cancel", is selected by default. You have to move the scroll wheel and click the "Rent" or "purchase" button in order to complete the transaction. It was not always this way. The top item used to be the confirmation of the transaction and you'd have to scroll to cancel.

                              One user had his chihuahua get hold of the remote and start to play with it and chew on it. He ended up renting a number of movies he'd not planned on! He made the point in the forums and this was rapidly changed to what you see now.

                              On top of that his dog, Chico, got a selection of movies at one point in the "Explore Vudu" section called "Chico's Choosing!" We all had a pretty good chuckle at that one..
