This is true Poke but only for the "My Recordings" screen that shows what has already been recorded. If you are looking at the "Channel Guide", you have to click the "info" button to see the "First Aired" date to know if it's a new show.

I NEVER watch the commercials on my recorded shows and have not had any problems deleting non-PTAT recorded shows.

What I like about BB@Home is that I can immediately exchange my online discs at my local BB store (across the street from me) for a recent Blu-ray release, which I do at least once a week. With Dish Cinema charging $6.99 a pop for the latest PPV HD movies, paying $10 a month for BB is a lot...

Click the DVR button on your remote 3 times to get to the schedule.

Agarrett, I agree with you. It''s the one option I regret giving up when I upgraded from my 2 VIP 722's. The single mode option (vs. the dual mode) allowed me to do that with TV1/TV2. The downside, of course, was that I was limited to SD signal on TV2 even though I had 2 HDTVs connected to each...

King, I agree with you. Actually, the functionality WAS possible at release. The Joey came with that functionality at release. Joeys can already see and access multiple Hoppers. What was the delay in adding the same technology to the Hoppers?

I don't know about a lawsuit. As you said "Replay ALMOST got sued". How much of a leap is it from a recording device allowing one to manually skip (or not) commercials to allowing one to auto-skip (or not)?

Myron, I remember reading somewhere that even if one has an HIC installed each Joey also requires a separate Ethernet connection to the home network to be able toaccess DLNA. Of course, I've also read that the Joey only needs the HIC to access DLNA so who knows. Do you have HIC installed on one...

Bobiii, does your channel 7 in LA happen to be the FOX channel?. I have the same problem with channel 28 (FOX) in Columbus, OH. Ii will not save to my favorite's list on the Hopper or the Joeys. I have to go to the "All Channels" list to manually record that station. I have had the problem with...

gjcavana, my DVR was 34% full before my update to S209. After the update, it changed to 17%. That's how I knew the additional space was automatically added.

Sparch....Most definately I mentioned that I had researched DirectTV's whole home DVR system and it was a viable alternative for my needs, especially since as a "new" customer I would get ALL of my equipment and installation with $0 upfront costs. I also told them I thought it was...

FuzzFace. While the advertisement is meant for new customers only, you can negotiate for a better deal as a "valued" existing customer or a potential new customer with another provider. I have been with Dish for 4+ years with excellent credit (auto-pay). I have the Top 250 programming and the...

How can I tell if S208 (or any future upgrades for that matter) has been download to my Hopper? Is there some screen in settings/system info where that information is available?

I have the same thing happening on my 1H/3J setup. The FAV list on my Hopper just won't keep FOX HD on the list, even after I "SAVE" it. It works fine on the Joey's. If I want to record something manually on FOX HD, I have to do it from one of the Joey's or switch to the "All Channels" or "My HD...

How many Hopper/Joeys were installed? I had 1 Hopper and 3 Joey’s installed to replace two VIP 722 HD/DVR receivers servicing 4 HDTV’s. Were you able to get the best promotional price for the Hopper system? Yes. I paid $0 for the equipment upgrade and installer visit (I have a service contract)...
