    Resume Button Missing While Still Recording

    When using play on a program still recording directly from the Hopper 3 it has always worked to resume for me. However when starting to watch a still recording program on my Joey and then trying play from the Hopper3 to resume it does sometimes go directly to live. However if I exit again from...

    Can't Pause and Resume a Program Being Recorded on Hopper 3

    It has been my experience that pressing play will always resume for a program that is still recording as long as the program is still recording (with a few seconds afterwards as someone here has mentioned. The solution is to press the play button and then skip back button). For programs that...

    Problem with pausing and resuming

    Using the play button on the remote control works as a defacto resume button on recordings that are still recording on the Hopper 3 or older Hoppers with the new CUI.

    Hopper 3 Dish Anywhere question

    That is true but you can get an actual slingbox and use that to get a second stream from a Hopper 3 or HWS. And while I think Dish Anywhere is generally easier and faster to use then a slingbox the slingbox does have two advantages over Dish Anywhere. Those being: 1) Autohop is available on a...

    Hopper 3: How do I PAUSE a REC, Tune another Channel, RETURN to the Original PAUSE

    Actually while there is no resume option while a program is still recording pressing the play button on the remote control works as a defacto resume button. I only discovered this recently when it was posted in another thread a while ago. And I used this often and successfully during the recent...

    Sports Timers Broken - Again

    I have had the same problem recently with my Duke basketball timer. Related to the recent Dish change in guide providers. I would recommend for any sports events you find really important you set an individual timer for the sports event plus set a manual timer for when the event is scheduled...

    Resume live recording working on H3 U344

    Thank you so much for posting this. I would have never thought of trying just pressing play. But you are right it works perfectly. As pressing play on a recording that is still recording essentially works as a resume button. And I am very happy to now have resume functionality on recordings that...

    H3 No Resume During Recording

    As a big sports fan I find the lack of resume on recordings still in progress on the Hopper 3 totally unacceptable. I also have complained about this to Dish by phone and by forum several times. And I don't know what the functionality was prior to me getting Dish in 2014 but since 2014 resuming...

    ALL Hoppers will soon lose the ability to resume recordings in progress

    It has to be a mistake that Dish has not fixed yet as otherwise it would simply be an idiotic design decision so I just assume it is a mistake/bug that Dish will hopefully fix before forcing the new UI to all the old Hoppers. As if that currently existing functionality is removed from all...

    new hopper 3 and dish, problems and questions

    Actually resuming a program that is still recording was possible on the Hopper and HWS, at least since I got Dish back in 2014. However the Hopper 3 does not allow resuming programs that are still recording. Since this was a functionality that was present in 2014, and is still currently present...

    ALL Hoppers will soon lose the ability to resume recordings in progress

    I have heard that at the beginning of October Dish is planning to force all Hoppers to update to the Carbon UI that is currently on the Hopper 3. I just want to let everyone know that when this is done all Hopper owners will lose the ability to resume if a recording is still in progress. If the...

    HWS recordings randomly short?

    There is a workaround for PTAT recordings so that they are never cut short. First set a separate timer for any PTAT show you watch regularly and add an extra 30 to 60 minutes to the end. Then go to your scheduled recordings list. On the Hopper 3 highlight the recording where it says to be...

    No resume option on in progress recording on Hopper 3

    It can be a big deal for sports fans, especially when there is more then one game recording. I don't think it is reasonable to expect people to pause until one hour after the game is finished when the recording is finished (which is the normal end time padding for sporting events). Or if the...

    No resume option on in progress recording on Hopper 3

    This is exactly correct. And exactly how it worked for me on both the HWS and the original Hopper ever since I first got Dish in 2014. The resume function while the recording is still in progress was only lost once I upgraded to the Hopper 3 on 1-31-16. And if this is fixed and the manual timer...

    Manual timer end time cannot be later then 11:59 pm on Hopper 3

    I already tried, but unfortunately you can not extend and add time to the end of manual timers the way you can to timers set thru the guide.
