2.4.2r continues to work for me, but it does give the "Film Plus has stopped" message a short time (~1m) into watching something, though I can live with that as it waits long enough for me to select something. Subtitles don't seem to work any more - I can choose "play with subtitles", it'll present a list of subtitle options, but pressing any of them doesn't result in play starting, it just sits at that menu.
Regarding saving my favourites and watched programmes, unfortunately that fails straight away and closes Film Plus. When I get a minute I'll revert to a previous version and see if the subtitles come back, but I need to finish a couple of series off first so I don't have to try to remember where I was.
One final strange thing is that, for some reason, it seems to default to playing the series "Dahmer" when I haven't selected it. Trying to watch the final two episodes of "Cross" last week, I watched one thinking "weird, this must be some sort of flashback sequence and we'll return to present day soon, or some familiar character will appear" but nothing. I started jumping forward through it, and at the end the title "Dahmer" appears at the start of the credits. Last night I thought I'd watch the first episode of "Entourage" as I haven't seen it for ages, picked a source, was a bit surprised it was 49m as I thought it was a 30min broadcast length, started watching it and that was another episode of Dahmer. This week I went to watch that same episode of "Cross" and it played correctly, but thought I'd watched it as it started playing at the end credits. Must be some sort of mix-up somewhere. As an ex IT bloke it intrigues me, and that's the only reason I mention it.
