What's in the new upgrade?

There could be (and surely are) other changes, but AT&T stubornly refuses to tell us what.

the only difference I noticed was the guide & the recorded TV section look slightly different. not much though. other than that I didn't notice anything else.

When pausing a program, the progress bar is bright green and says "AT&T Uverse" on the right side.

I'm noticing a bunch of changes.

Different fonts

different menu backgrounds

different screen savers

I see a complete re-skin on the UI that has occoured. Something that looks more AT&T and less WMC.

I've had the update for two days and here is what I've found:

Definite new feature:

You can now directly enter in channel numbers in the "Hide Channels" menu

Louder volume from STB

Possible new feature:

Manual Recording option under the Recordings tab 

Fast forward/Rewind feels different in a way I can't quite put my finger on (and I don't mean the updated interface) 

Possible new bug fix for a very small group of people that includes me:

Previously there would be audio drops coming through my Onkyo receiver when I had the STB set to output "Surround" sound when tuned to a channel that didn't broadcast a Dolby Digital audio stream. After the update those audio drops have, so far, gone away.

You can now directly enter in channel numbers in the "Hide Channels" menu  <-This has been available for over a year now.  You must not have noticed.

Manual Recording option under the Recordings tab <- Also available for a while.  I use it all the time.

@bailorgAbility to make manual recordings setup has been there from the beginning, at least from when I got Uverse TV in 2008.

FF/REW is the same.  Only difference is the >>> is not right justified and stayed still, but left justified to the time length which contionually changes, making the >>> jiggle back/forth.

The direct enter in hide channels was known here, but ATT didn't annouce it and didn't put anything in the descriptions for it.  That's been there for 2-3 years. 😉
