    No RESUME while watching DVR recordings. Ugg

    Not what we mean. This will only allow you do delete complete folders of programs recorded. What we need and want and ALL other DVRs have is the ability to drill down one more level, Open folder and put check marks next to specific episodes we want to mass delete. Example Seinfeld- 135 episodes...

    No RESUME while watching DVR recordings. Ugg

    Hmm, I was able to resume a recording in progress with not issue with my Motorola garbage FIOS box with Verizon. I am fairly sure I could as well with my Directv box as well. Okay Guess it is what it is. Yes I know about the change out of folder to delete only option but it too is awful...

    No RESUME while watching DVR recordings. Ugg

    For all the great things I love about the Hopper. I already lothe not being able to check mark multiple programs to mass delete. I just noticed while watching a DVR recorded program and changing channel and going back to DVR menu there is only choices to START OVER or LIVE TV. Where is...

    How the heck can I delete easily from DVR without having to go one program at a time?

    Thank you! While still not perfect and as the other poster agrees (wish they would make simple check box to bulk delete) this does make a better work around then doing it one at at time...... Add all these nice features and leave out a simple one. Go figure!

    How the heck can I delete easily from DVR without having to go one program at a time?

    When you go into the main folder the ONLY option you have is to delete one at a time and thats takes forever. THere is no option to check boxes on episodes for a bulk multiple delete..... Unless I am nuts.

    How the heck can I delete easily from DVR without having to go one program at a time?

    Thanks. However thats the issue. I have done this. However this deletes complete folder. I want to retain some episodes.. I have never seen a DVR menu where you can not simply open that same folder and check 10 of 15 episodes (as example)and then hit delete. .>> This Hopper is an ALL or nothing...

    How the heck can I delete easily from DVR without having to go one program at a time?

    Okay I know I must be lame. Before the Hopper and on every other DVR I have had. There is a place to as example pull up DVR folder for Seinfeld and simply place a check in box next to all episodes I want to delete and then simply choose delete. Verify and then its gone. On the Hopper I only...

    At wits end with Hopper standby then freeze each night at 1am while watching. BUNK!

    Thanks guys! Yes I talked to tech and they said its a known issue and hopefully a future (don't held your breath) update will allow to move the 1am UPDATE time as its a real pain for people like me that work second shift. I will try setting a 1am and 2am timer and report back. He said I must...

    At wits end with Hopper standby then freeze each night at 1am while watching. BUNK!

    I only have one issue but its huge in my eyes! I work swing shift so I start watching TV about midnight. Each night at 1am exactly the box wants to turn off to look for updates. If I catch it I simply answer NO and all is good. However if I am in the kitchen, out of room, or simply do not...

    Question in conflicting information from tech on ext tb hard drive

    Sorry I am an idiot. I did not see you can scroll down to a third line in Menu. DOH! I see it and it works. How come it says Hopper has only 500gb drive? I thought this was advertised as a 2tb drive? my ext shows correct 1tb.

    1Hopper, 2 Joeys on perfect install takes 6 hours. Plus Tech war heard!

    Sorry this was not the case. The 2nd Joey in was not greyed out as this was his thinking too. It showed all 3. However it would not go LIVE with Joey 2 at all. Kept just wanting to mirror well after activations, software and first guide update. Good guess though as he also was convinced of...

    Whos lying? How many hours HD does HR24 hold please?

    Wow, that must be frustrating. Even Clear has 4mg download and 1mg up here in WA. The only place I really like the big speed is for streaming HD off VUDU or Amazon. Other then that 3mg would be fine for me as well.
