    Is Flex Pack a rip off????

    It was a pain to build my own spreadsheet for comparison. I know companies do not want to make things convenient (grocer puts eggs, milk and butter at the back of the store). But, aside from the premiums, I can only think of WGN and its one or fewer shows they have (I liked Manhattan, but it...

    No Auto Hop on CBS & ABC

    thanks. I don't know how they do it. I just expect it to be tighter. but it makes sense if they do it for some God forsaken city up north then apply it to the United States (Texas and its 49 biotches) for me, TV shows are all the same. i watch as little as possible 'live' so Hulu or DVR is an...

    No Auto Hop on CBS & ABC

    those of y'all in cities and towns that have a good guarantee of broadband (unavailable to me out in the sticks, but glad to have wisp finally) should cut the cord. ps vue, sling, etc. if I had a good idea that this good thing would last, I'd pay my etf and go. but I've got Hulu for free for a...

    No Auto Hop on CBS & ABC

    not yet. heck we couldn't get broadband until last spring. but, it's making the major feature of the hopper (the name too) pointless. makes me wonder how long before the networks tell the cable /satellite companies no fast forwarding at all in playback. if I were a major network, that's what...

    No Auto Hop on CBS & ABC

    wait. NBC is the last of the big 4 to still have auto hop the next day? I just noticed it wasn't working on ABC... I watch maybe 2 sitcoms from ABC and that's all. mostly it's NBC. the wife watches CBS. wow! it's making the streaming shows on Hulu look even better! Sent from my XT1575 using...

    Youtube not working on H3?

    YouTube is the same for me on the h3. Roku or smart TV is fine... Heck even my old Blu-ray player. Just not the h3... I reset yt so many times I don't even bother to activate the h3 anymore Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

    More senior friendly remote

    I got a 40 off ebay and put the 52 on top of the hopper so I will know where it is when I send them back. I kept the 52 in the bedroom because I never watch TV in there Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk

    Hopper 3 Remote Control

    I've had the 52.0 for a few months now. I much prefer the 40.0...i just ordered a 40.0 for $7.99 on eBay... I've just got one hopper 3 and its mated Joey... We seldom watch TV in bed so I'll get another 40.0 later... I don't like clicking several buttons to do various things... And search then...

    Timer backups when upgrading from HWS to hopper 3?

    Thanks y'all. I got it back... One set of return instructions said NOT to include the remote. Another said to include the remote... Then I had to decide on which remote to return... Ok. I sent back the old ones (after restoring my backup successfully) Man! I don't like the 52.0 remote. No blue...

    Timer backups when upgrading from HWS to hopper 3?

    Thanks! I'm getting the hopper 3 in the morning... Is it the same procedure only use restore on the hopper 3? Funny. I had a backup dated a couple of weeks ago.

    Timer backups when upgrading from HWS to hopper 3?

    I'd read here it does a backup to the remote (?!). Can I backup my timers? If so, how does it all work?
