    Does your remote make noises?

    My Hopper remote used to do that too! I've since cut the cable, and now my Tivo remote does it!! Kept my wife from falling asleep last night, so she put it in the other room. That prompted me to do a search.

    timer records each game twice

    With the hopper now, but had the same issue last summer with my 722. I set a timer to record all Brewers MLB games from my regional sports network. Most or all games are broadcast on 2 channels. The problem is that my timer records both channels. Is there a trick to setting my timer to only...

    Hopper Upgrades

    ehd required to transfer from 722k? typical upgrade cost since I'm past the 2 yr contract?

    1--I've been considering an upgrade to the hopper, and am very excited to see that it's possible to transfer my recordings. I've recorded around 15 hours of concerts that I'd like to have access to on my new dvr. I have never used an ehd with my current dvr because I didn't need the space and...
