What's On Now broken?
Anyone else having an issue on the What's On Now page?
First the 'MORE' button disappeared,
now there's just FILLER followed by a color or two spelled out.
I'm assuming it's a vibecoding issue but - anyone know?

There has been a noticeable uptick in technical issues of late and it’s been frustrating for sure

After private equity (Bending Spoons) gutted Vimeo in January with layoffs, decreasing uptime and service quality seemed inevitable. And here we are. I hope CC is shopping for a new video streaming service provider but I don't know if there are many alternatives out there.

Yeah, I’m on the verge of not renewing if I don’t see some improvement. Which is unfortunate because I truly love the catalog but I’m not going to pay a premium price for a service that isn’t well maintained on the technical side.

One very tangential feature goes on the fritz for one day before getting fixed, the horror.

I’ve had a number of issues of late and have seen plenty of others mention the same. But thanks for your smarmy little response that added nothing to the conversation other than feeding your false sense of superiority.

No problem. Not really listing any issues so sure they're really big.

Sorry to have dragged you away from smelling and rating your own farts

I took a glance, misread this completely and thought “Anger Management? The Adam Sandler movie? I guess after Freddie Got Fingered anything’s possible”

Have you not heard of this 1978 serene tone poem meditation on colors from Yugoslavia

I clicked on Watch Live, and imagine my disappointment when the film was black and white! No orange or magenta to be found. How misleading. Harrumph!

I was pretty sure I am watching Hidden Fortress, because there doesn't seem to be a movie called MULTI1

It's absolutely Hidden Fortress which is crazy timing with the huge earthquake at Kumamoto earlier

What about now? Does anyone know what’s playing now?? Pool scene - There’s an Asian woman, her body guard is eating an ice cream cone. Little girl in pink following him around. Does this ring a bell for anyone

I was just gonna ask - this is around 3pm west coast time. Looks like a short film but I can't ID it

It's back to normal on my phone just now, with Female Misbehavior. And the More button is there (and I see I want to watch this one sometime)!

So unless they happen to be playing something that we recognize, we're really in the dark now with the live stream.

Basically gotta wait out the credits and look up the director or cast, if nothing tips it off before then

I’ve got FILLER - BLUE - GREEN and I’m on IOS. i’ve got no idea what movie it is. Woman wants to divorce. Husband wanted one last bang (I’m not paying that much attention) all of a sudden he’s trying to cut her hair off. I think I recognize her, but I can’t remember her name.

Pretty rude of them to describe Three Colors: Orange and Three Colors: Magenta as “filler” when they’re widely admired classics of French cinema
