That did it, Thanks

I selected a show but don't have a transfer option. All I get is to "watch", "delete", or "save".

Hi all. Just upgraded from a 625 and 2 - 722"s. I've heard that you can actually transfer DVR recordings to an iPad. Is there any instructions anywhere? My DishAnywhere app has a queue area. But I can't find a way to start the process.

Thanks. I tried to google it but nothing came up. Do you have a link?

Yeah that's what we did when I was a tech. I saved the stickers and at the end of the week I knew how many receivers I needed to restock. Since I've come back to the company they switched to sharing vans. So, at night I restock every van. I'm building a (hopefully) potent spreadsheet that will...

Does anyone know where we can look up the specs on the barcodes DISH uses? I work in an RSP warehouse. We can print barcodes but it isn't a font. It's an image which doesn't paste well into a spreadsheet to work the van inventory. I've tried a few barcode fonts on the internet but none seem to...

Ok. That explains why initially, before the living room router died, both VIPs were online with ONLY a slinglink on the Living Room. So, to fix it once and for all I need to leave the ethernet connection in the guest room and run a cat five cable to the living room receiver once and for all? I...

No Sir. The Living room is still using a Sling Link. I am considering going out and getting a wifi adapter. Back when I used to install, it's been a couple of years, wifi was the least reliable connection method. I thought that one connection was all that was needed to gain connectivity for all...

For years, I had a 722K connected via Slinglink. It was in the Living Room. And generally speaking the connection was stable if a little slow. Recently I added another 722K and it shared the connection. It is in a Guest Room. A few days later the router in the living room died and was...

This answered my question why TV2 on a 625 wont sat auto tune. At least I am not crazy.

Yeah. I think my tablet compass is on crack. But the iPhone is a life saver. Cut my point and tweak time by a huge amount. Align a site is also a good tool. It's best when perms mounted to your travel long dish.

Yeppers. I have DPPro for iPhone and the galaxy tab. The iPhone app is sooo much more accurate it ain't funny. That could be due to internal compass quality also. Worth every nickel on the iPhone.

Yeah I've been told that also. All I know is that it didn't work for us during that install. I feel bad for the guy since he "lost" a lot of dvr stuff.

I upgraded a guy from a 622 to 1H2J and his 622 ehd didn't work. The hopper showed it as attached but did not show content. This guy was twisted pissed. We called Dash and the support guy on the other end stated categorically that all ehd must go to the same type of receiver. I suspect it isn't...

That's good to know. Is the CS hit any different than the one I can send from my tablet? If not, I will just incorporate it into my installation routine.
