    Hopper Timer Cancelled by Wife's Windows7 Laptop??

    I've seen the same thing with my 1H/1J. My daughter cancelled a news timer from the Hopper (she didn't realize she could "red button" and grab a different tuner). The Joey reported that the timer was cancelled by my laptop. My guess is that the event is associated with an ID, perhaps a MAC or...

    Hopper S213 Feedback and Issues

    Here's the wrist (gist). You should only have one active bridge between the ethernet and the MoCa networks. The HIC is a bridge. If your hoppers are connected to ethernet and MoCa, as of s213 they are also bridges. Look at all of your Hoppers and HIC, only 1 should be connected to both ethernet...

    DLNA on Joey over MoCa without HIC

    When did the Hopper become a bridge? I've been using ethernet on the Joey exclusively for a while (well over a month) and just went to MoCa to test a few things related to s213. After a lot of problems, I realized my Hopper is acting as a bridge, with full access to my ethernet over MoCa. Is...

    Hopper S213 Feedback and Issues

    For those having Joey connection problems, do your Joey's have connections to both Coax (MOCA) and ethernet? I have similar problems when Joey's are connected to both, but not when I move the Joey to only one network. I think that S213 introduced a bridge loop or some other L2 problem in the...

    Hopper S213 Feedback and Issues

    Do you have both the coax and ethernet connected on the Joey? I ask because this morning I was going to (subjectively) compare ethernet to MOCA. I normally have only ethernet plugged into the Joey. I connected the coax (with Ethernet still in) and reset the Joey. Joey could not find the Hopper...

    Possible Upcoming Software Update

    I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. Only went to the living room once this morning to reset the Hopper (Joey wouldn't link).

    Possible Upcoming Software Update

    I have only one Hopper, and got 213. The Joey was not upgraded. Personally, I would want to vet the software on a wide range of configurations, not just on the target config.

    Possible Upcoming Software Update

    Independent. My Hopper went to S213 this morning. Joey is still S264. .

    Archive to EHD a PTAT recorded program.

    You must "save" the PTAT recording, then wait 8 days for it to actually save to the user partition (it will disappear from the PTAT folder but remain in My Recordings). Then you can transfer to EHD.

    Hoak Media stations off Dish amid dispute

    They can elect once every three years. I think the current election period started 1/1/2012 (Ouch).

    Hoak Media stations off Dish amid dispute

    Eggsactly. So if the broadcaster feels they need the carrier to reach a broader audience, they choose "must carry". If the broadcaster feels the carrier needs them to appease their subscribers, they choose retrans agreement. Dish is playing Who Needs Whom?

    Hoak Media stations off Dish amid dispute

    Except that you have your logical condition backwards. "Dish is required by law to carry it, unless the broadcaster denies the right to carry." Is False. Dish may not carry without an affirmative agreement from the broadcaster (i.e. permission from the broadcaster). As the carrier and the...

    Hoak Media stations off Dish amid dispute

    "Must Carry" does not automatically kick in. If the broadcaster meets certain requirements, provides a feed (free of charge), and makes a request for carriage, then DISH "must carry" (if they carry any locals in that market). If the broadcaster requests a carriage fee, DISH can decline and "must...
