Library completely revamped -- recently recorded still doesn't work
YouTubeTV on my Roku just got an all new revamped library and recently recorded is still broken, but now it's even more confusing to work around than before.
Just about forever I have had series which I record which have never shown up in "Recently Recorded" even though they have recently recorded new episodes. One example is the TV show "Transplant" on NBC. I never know when there are new episodes -- in the past I would go to the "Shows" tab periodically and check if there were new episodes -- as this happens with more than one show and I record a lot of shows, this is really inconvenient and annoying. Now they have revamped the libraries tab but this is still broken, but now there isn't a "Shows" tab per se -- now there is a "Series" filter and it is really confusing to me how these filters are supposed to work because they seem to interact and I find the results confusing.
To make matters worse, the filters seem ambiguous. There is one called, I believe, "New for You" which would seem to be like "Recently recorded", but there is also one called, I believe, "Recent recordings", none of which revealed the most recent episode of "Transplant".
This new setup seems like change for change's sake and makes things more confusing rather than more helpful. I don't understand why they never bother to fix "Recently recorded" -- it's been complained about enough times. And can't we just have an option that shows unwatched recordings in a sortable/filterable list?
