    HBO On Demand Hopper Question

    If I have unexpired HBO on demand shows downloaded in my 'rentals' section, and then cancel HBO...can I still watch those shows until they expire or will they expire immediately after I cancel?

    S 238?

    So I'm scared to ask, but have they fixed the :29/:59 thing yet?

    Hopper Audio Probs

    This won't fix the problem for good, but for me it is a lot easier than rebooting the Hopper. What I've found is that if you switch to a non-HD channel, the audio will come back...then I can return to whatever I was watching. I always switch to ESPNU when this happens and it fixes the problem...

    Loss of audio when moving from HD channel to SD

    I have a very similar problem. When I'm FFing a recorded program, sometimes the audio will go out. I THOUGHT the only way to get it back was to turn off my receiver and then turn it back on. I've recently discovered that if I switch from my recorded program to an SD channel, the audio will...

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    One additional thing I'd definitely change is I would NEVER have it ask if you want it to do an update when you're watching a recorded program. If they aren't going to change the update time (for some reason) at least let it be smart enough not to interrupt watching a RECORDED show with a giant...

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    Everything else is perfect to me, but these things are still annoying: The ridiculous :29/:59 pixellation. Why can't that be fixed? The fact that you can't change the update time. Lack of bookmarking. Used that all the time on DTV. Can't control shows while on the guide screen. If you're...

    S234 12-13-12

    This is the #1 thing I wish they would fix, but I don't think they will since as far as I know, Dish DVRs have never done this. It is one Directv feature I really miss.

    Hopper audio delay when skipping fwd/back

    I've been having this problem since I got 234 also, and it is VERY annoying. Glad it is happening to other people though (but sorry you're having to go through it!). I use the 30 second skip between plays during football games, so needless to say, Sunday was very very frustrating for me...

    Can't find "resume" DVR function

    Yep, this is a really annoying feature, especially on really long events like football games. My wife recorded hours and hours of Olympics coverage this summer and since the recordings are so long, they were rarely finished when we needed to change the channel. Then we had to start over and...

    Hopper Recording Logic

    It wasn't PTAT. I don't have that enabled yet. (Although it strangely happened at the 2 minute warning of the Cowboys game for me too, Mark.) I set the timer on my own though.

    Hopper Recording Logic

    I'm almost positive that last night my Hopper removed the 60 minute extra time buffer from a show I was recording to help resolve a recording conflict. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, this needs to be changed! I'd much rather have a chance to reschedule something that will be rerun...

    Three Quick Hopper questions

    Wow, those were three quick answers! Thanks. Do you think Dirt would submit #1 and #3 to their design team? Those aren't major flaws, by any means, but it would make things more convenient!

    Three Quick Hopper questions

    1. Is there any way to make it so you only have to press one button to turn off the tv AND DVR, like on Directv? 2. Can settings and timers saved in a remote be transferred to a different Hopper if the DVR you have breaks or something? 3. I love that the Hopper automatically adds 60 minutes...

    PTAT & Sunday Night Football

    Well, Sunday Night Football on NBC is about to start up, and it got me wondering...Will PTAT adjust to cover the entire game or do I need to set a non-PTAT timer for it? Because the games will DEFINITELY run past the primetime window, I assume I'll have to set a timer...but it would be nice if...

    Hopper remote

    If my Hopper ever broke, could I transfer my settings and timers to the new Hopper via the old remote?

    I really hate the Hopper!

    As long as I know they're still working on improving the firmware, I'm cool! The Hopper has a ton of potential.

    Hopper Wish List - What to change

    I haven't been able to do this (at least on the the first page that comes up when you hit DVR). Is it possible?

    DISH Hopper Testers Needed

    HUGE sports fan here, especially with college and NFL football about to start up. Got my Hopper and Joey last week, so I'd love to help!

    Old Dish Customer with New Hopper Problems/Questions

    This is probably a dumb question, but could I fix the HDMI handshake glitch with a different HDMI cable? I know that's probably not the problem, but if it is that would be awesome to have such an easy fix!

    Hopper Wish List - What to change

    1. When watching a show that you are currently recording, it doesn't let you resume from where you left off if you change to something else. You have to start over. Very annoying if you're watching a super long event like the Olympics! 2. Would love for closed captioning to be able to be set...
