Yes, I've seen that as well. Have to FF to the place that I was.

I still do, transferring programs is much faster drive to drive using Linux.

Also, due to a quirk, the Hopper shows storage based on the line limit of the oldest show in the list. It's been around forever. To test it, try deleting or archiving the oldest show you've got. Magically, the storage will be recalculated. Yeah, it was driving me nuts as well until I tried...

No, the Hopper will self partiton into 512G partitions using EXT-3

Yup, that's the frost line. Anything above that will heave from summer to winter. Even if you are south, it's easier to make one rule. Also helps with rogue lawn mowers or kids playing half-back

Other than the Hopper doesn't support TRIM and after the cells get used the SSD goes poof!

Depends on perspective. When he bought the bandwidth there was little interest in it from the industry. SpaceX was just trying to launch their 1st gen satellites and there was little interest by the other carriers. So he sat on it (hoping to use it for his buildout) and then took the...

Never underestimate Charlie! He got Echostar off the hook and even came out ahead to run the company for years more

If the Hopper 1 still used EXT3 format, then as a last resort you can connect both to a Linux system and use Dolphin or other file transfer program that transfers an entire directory including permissions to the other drive after the Hopper 3 has formatted the new drive. It's not fast, but...

Had that happen once. I just logged on to the harmony remote site and plugged in the remote and have it reload the remote. Worked after then. Not sure what happened.

Wait for it to be obstructed and then call them.

Yeah, sorry, I tagged the wrong person. I went back and tagged JRyan821 . Sorry

They used to have one because the older transmitted channel was in 4:3, so you could set that channel to a wider aspect ratio. I found that out when an installer who was familiar with the area automatically just went to each channel and set it to wide. History now!

JRyan821 The percentage shown on the screen for your internal hard drive has never meant crap! Sorry you lost those recordings, but the Hopper has its own, super secret, algorithm for updates. I've erased multiple shows my wife recorded, and it's still the same; hit delete for a single one, and...

I'm very sure you know how to do that. See if any directories in the partition are available and just copy the entire directory to another partition. Nothing magic about where they are, the Hopper figures it all out. If anything can't be accessed, then I guess SOL. So after you've...
