    Extended timer not working for PTAT events

    Do you usually just do an hour past the end of the show? The run over happened to us too, but I didn't have a timer set up for after. Had to hook up the laptop and stream from CBS to watch the Mentalist.

    Question... Now that you have had your Hopper

    1)Love Autohop, PTAT, GUI, and hard drive size 2)Haven't really found any that cause me to curse yet. 3)Haven't had anything replaced 4)While it may be trivial, I'd like to see if we've set a timer on PTAT shows. Just putting a small icon next to the yellow PTAT icon would be nice for a quick...

    S 238?

    Ok, I think I've come across a slight bug. When watching a recorded program, the first skip forward seems to always skip ahead 10 minutes (don't know the exact time) into the program. I can rewind back and skip forward seems to work from that point on. Not a big deal, but kind of a pain. I...

    Help! Cannot watch protected shows

    I don't know if there is a way, but can you un-protect the series, the same way you protected them? Or maybe try to un-protect one of the shows of the series and see what happens.

    S 238?

    Got it this morning. Haven't really had the chance to play with it. Noticed the red and blue button banner right away. Definitely quicker than 234.

    722k rebooting continuously!

    Yep same thing with me a couple years ago, what made things even better was the replacement DISH sent out was bad too. 3rd one worked great until it was replaced with a hopper in Dec.

    Two major problems we're seeing with Original Hopper.

    I didn't even realize that #2 was possible. The couple times I've had a conflict, I've always just set a manual timer (after update). I guess I should try it on some show I only mildly care about.

    Hopper install questions

    When I had mine installed back in Dec '12, I only had one wire from my dish, to a central location (where all the home runs were located, all RG-6 3ghz), the installer drilled and installed the second coax and put the node in the central location, and did the connections from there. Even though...

    How long with Dish?

    July 2001. Any issues I've had have been small, and fixed quickly. I did have a 722 die on me, and the replacement was DOA, but after that everything has been peachy! Loving my new Hopper.

    I love the Hopper but it needs more than three tuners. Plus you should be able to watch other chann

    So, how many transponders are there? And, how many channels can be recorded from the same transponder?

    Can't set timer for San Francisco ABC affiliate

    I have the same issue with ABC (KMID, Midland, TX) and PTAT. I've used the "Record Series" in the PTAT folder as a work around. I've noticed that sometimes the newly created timer(s) are not in the timer list, but if I exit out of the list and check it again the timer(s) are listed. It would...

    Hopper not outputting 5.1 Dolby Digital

    Tom, Glad you got it figured out, and all is better. No worries about being an "electronic doofus" we all have times when we can't figure something out. That's why we're all here.

    S234 12-13-12

    I haven't tried the Hopper yet, but with my BT headphones, I used have trouble getting them to reconnect to my laptop. Turns out they were already paired with my phone which was next to me also. As soon as I turned BT off on my phone, the laptop picked them up again. Maybe there is another...

    Hopper not outputting 5.1 Dolby Digital

    I can understand your frustration. But unless they are specifically targeting certain people, I feel there is something wonky with your setup (or you have a bad Hopper). There have been several people here that are receiving DD 5.1 on programming that includes it. Maybe you have a list of...

    Still having issues with :29 and :59 past the hour freeze/pixilation

    I still haven't noticed it on my new Hopper, sort of. I have seen a bit of audio drop/picture freeze (only lasts less than a second, and doesn't happen very often), but it's never been at the :29 or :59 mark. Weird, and not something that really bothers me.

    New S229 Feature - Bluetooth Audio

    I got the same ones from the recommendation in this thread. I haven't tried them on the Hopper yet, but they work great with my iPhone and Laptop.

    Voice and Picture not in sync-Audio Hookup?

    I'd try like lucky86 said, then HDMI From Hopper ->AVR ->TV. IIRC the HDMI spec has some auto correction built into the spec, but I could be wrong. If not there may be some sort of audio delay being applied in your AVR, what brand/model are you using?

    Upgrade to Hopper/Joey, EHD Prep?

    I didn't even think to look behind the door! Duh. Not that I need to reset, but it's good to know.

    Upgrade to Hopper/Joey, EHD Prep?

    So far I haven't had any issues playing recordings directly from my EHD. I haven't even had to power cycle it, after the initial install. Its weird that you can play them off the Joey, but not the Hopper. I'd try what Thomas has suggested, a reboot may be in order. For those of us that don't...

    Hopper not outputting 5.1 Dolby Digital

    Thats correct, HDMI only from Hopper to AVR, then HDMI to TV. No other digital or analog connections. *Edit, I assume you're not using some sort of Audio return channel. My guess would be that if you were, any connection would have the same affect, but you say its working on other sources.
