latest update of ur stream App is terrible.

So sorry I updated DirecTV Stream app. On 2 Samsung TVs. It’s so frustrating — can’t fast forward for rewind without it going all the way back to the start of program. Video quality is much worse. Hard to use menu—if u can even get back to it. we sure miss UVerse!!!

Home screen very small

The home screen is very small. I've tried all the different display options (1080p, 1080i, etc.), but it doesn't make the display any bigger. The display on the channels looks just right - it is only the home screen that has become so small.
