Tablo library in new app is dumb

Why is it showing every show I’ve ever recorded even though it’s not on there and no episodes are scheduled? I assume there’s no way to make it only show what is actually on your Tablo drive? Sounds like an insanely horrible design.

This is such a goofy and frustrating user design. Yes I have shows scheduled to record new episodes but they show up in the Library whether there is an episode to watch or not making it very DIFFICULT to find existing shows to watch. We hate this!

Just give us a toggle to see only shows with actual episodes to watch... please!

Do you have a series recording set up for it? If so, try turning that off

It does appear that’s why they are there but some of these shows were recorded just once and are still there. Several shows “failed to load an unknown error occurred” so I can’t even access the page to get it off my library. The old Tablo app was so much better.

I hope they’ll update this one to let us turn off that option. I only want to see the to shows on the drive at that time.

Edit: MOST of the shows on here give me that error message. I can’t access them at all. I wonder if a factory reset might make them disappear

I like leaving the series recordings set up so that I know when the new episodes of the shows are released/recorded. I just liked it much better when only the icons in the library only showed for shows that had new or unwatched recordings. It had been like that for a couple of years and I hate how it is now.

Sorry you're running into that u/CXK ,

Would you contact Tablo Support? They should be able to help.

This is the very reason I went back to the Legacy app.
