Default recording location anomaly (not a biggy, but strange).

[goo]

Setup, Recordings and Playback.

The 'Default movie location' stays the default recording location regardless of what the 'Timer recording location' is set to.

Also, when you are in that recording location (to view recordings) it has no '..' icon for the parent directory. So you have to use the yellow location key to move to other directories.
I have tried creating other directories from within Vix or from a PC, and they all have the '.. directory' icon, whether they are bookmarked or not.
That icon disappears, in all cases, as soon as they are set as the 'Default movie location', and reappears when they are deselected.

Haven't tried re-flashing, but 6.2.001 was a clean flash a few days ago, and I noticed the missing parent directory icon, a few releases ago.
Only really bothered me when I created other directories for different sets of recordings.

Like the title says, not a biggy, but it may have other unseen consequences.

Not noticed anything wrong with mine. I have the default recording location set to my NAS.
You can go up a level when viewing the recording list by pressing the 'previous' button.

IIRC there is a configuration option for this to show, but the default is "off".
That's because the expectation is that all recording on the box will be beneath the default location so the absence of ".." prevents you accidentally navigating to somewhere that does not contain any recordings.
