TCM has been in unconverted SD for a long time, not bad, but. It now looks like HD on some movies. Then I will have to re-record a lot of movies, over 900, whenever they are shown.

Or must I wait until it shows up on a "regular" channel? Trying to re-create my crashed EHD library, without hacks. The Hopper crashed with files in transit, not the EHD. -Ken

Earlier this week on start up I get a notice that my timers are saved but programs are being erased. I lost a nearly full Hopper with Sling disk of programs. Many were old programs that were copied out and back but would not copy back to the EHDs--I was moving them. Tonight the same thing. This...

Help missing new programs and old timers. I did not cancel them. They are scheduled the day before and then I get this notice. VERY VERY annoying. Missed a pilot tonight. I don't want to have to set manual timers for repeated shows. -Ken

Another download tonight--it seems I just got S502. So now we need to find out what is "fixed?" This time. Yes, Dish really need to give us some hints. It will help their bug hunting, too. Noticed it was 1:30 and just got it HwS turned off in time to get this right away, ending near 2AM. Longer...

"Cancelled By user" it says for a program I wanted following another episode with no conflicts. I did NOT cancel it. This is not the first time this has happened on my HwS for "New and Reruns." There is no make up. This was a series rerun but I had not seen these episodes and probably never...

External Hard Drive or the world of hurt. I have a lot of EHDs from 750GB to 2TB with up to 1000 shows each. I have little problem transferring one or multiple shows to the internal drive (IHD). These same shows often give problems when being move to another EHD. Even moving them one at a time...

OK, I'll start it off. DVR + My Recordings + Daily Schedule Off by one programming error: the current/next time slot is one line above the displayed list. Thus you have to scroll back one to see what will record. Not a biggie but annoying. In the it would be nice category: I would like...

FWIW got this pre-flight: Hello Valued Customer, Your flight on ... is currently scheduled to be on one of our WiFi-enabled planes and features free live TV compliments of DISH! Using your own laptop, tablet or smartphone, you will have unlimited access to both live channels and on-demand...

When do the icons/covers/graphics/tile labels get added and where do they come from? I upgraded H2000 to HWS and the tiles have gradually had the cover graphics added (back). Most recordings had the icons but the switch wiped them out for all EHDs including the transfer. So they are not part of...

Almost as soon as I get off the Hopper but still watching the screen, the Hopper will do its nightly after say 1:30. Then an hour later or so it will reload the guide. Why twice? If you have gone to viewing, it will ask. -Ken

New HwS and initially OK. Now when I pause and try to continue play it gives me a red dot with a slash through it. No other activity. I interpret this to mean a no record allowed. A jog back or forward allows play. What is going on? Annoying never was on H2000. -Ken

I was recording and viewing the listings of 1 of 2 EHDs when it shut down and rebooted--this is not the first time, but was at the stroke of midnight. So I end up with 5-min breaks in recordings and some time wasted and lose some recordings that are not repeated. I do have the OTA module. I...

I am replacing Hopper with HwS, Monday. Thanks to DIRT for the quick delivery. No Saturday UPS here. What order should I use for setting up the new one? This should apply to any change out of DVRs. There is more you can do with Hopper. (1) From the menus save the timers (and settings, maybe) in...

On 4/20/10 TCM (Turner Classic Movies) went from SD to upconvert shown as HD but slightly smaller sized. The logo for TCM now says TCM HD, so it HD or is it still the upconvert? It is sometimes hard to tell the difference on old movies. Did I miss the announcement? You can sometimes tell from...

I have PTAT enabled but not for the nights where this is happening. I am getting 2 PTAT-eligible channels and 2 non-PTAT channels at the same time. I have had it twice on one night and again tonight. I did not think this was possible. So it must be using PTAT capability to get the two but...

When I finish with an EHD recording, done, pause, or abandon, the cursor is returned to the top-level first position. It would be better for it to return to the list from which it came. For example, when I want to see a series from the EHD, after finishing the first one, it means going to My...

I have a timer for Dexter, New and Reruns. The first 3 reruns recorded last night and I had moved them to EHD. The 4th show was recording then. I hadn't noticed but it did not stop at 1 hour--it recorded 5 hours before I caught it. First hour is the show and it then runs on and on. I was...

Right now PTAT cannot be sent to the EHD from day 1. I would reduce the days to retain PTAT programs but it seems safer to keep them in the 8-day category. The best I can do now is to set protect on the shows I will be saving and delete those on no interest. Does that keep them "forever"...

Why so many with 02/06/06 11:28 Record Date--actually year 2106? On my Hopper 2000. Harder to see the century on 85 I have. All caught as re-runs. The only one not so dated is new #88. -Ken

Brand new to Hopper. Some findings: Sharper picture than 722--wife even commented on that. I have problems setting up recordings of shows to get ONLY the HD version. If it exists in the guide then it is easy because that picks the channel. If not in guide then Seek does not have options...

The "Scream" HD 1/17 6pm presentation showed "The following presentation contains / Language / Violence / Viewer discretion advised / ALL IFC MOVIES HAVE NOT BEEN EDITED FOR CONTENT OR TIME." followed by "This Film had been modified from its original version. It has been formatted to fit this...

I monitor the size of my recordings and about 2 weeks ago the size of my PBS recordings became larger. Tonight looking to perhaps get a "tighter" recording of Wonderful Life (NBC) I re-recorded it. It was 8864MB versus the previous years' 5957MB, each for 3 hours. An episode of Downton Abbey on...
