    Arghhh, I am so frustrated with the H3 timers situation

    Thanks for the heads up, I'll have to check ours.

    Hopper 3 keeps losing EHD connection

    Same here - U347 seems to have fixed the "disappearing EHD" problem for us. Sent from my SM-T713 using Tapatalk

    Arghhh, I am so frustrated with the H3 timers situation

    The problem is some shows (like the Expanse), redoing the timer will help for one episode or two, then it happens again. They need to get this crap fixed correctly. As for next week - as of this morning the guide doesn't show The Expanse for next week (instead two half hour shows are in that...

    Guide Info Stinks!

    And it doesn't even work consistently. I've had to delete and reprogram several shows (such as The Expanse) multiple times, and the Hopper STILL misses them sometimes. We shouldn't have to babysit our DVRs like this. This guide situation has made what should be one of the best DVRs a piece of...

    New EPG Info data - strange

    Just to note, this bull continues - last night's new episode of "Little Big Lies" was completely ignored, even though it had showed up as scheduled when we looked on Saturday. This Thursday's Big Bang Theory also wasn't listed this morning, even though the guide says it's new. In both cases, we...

    New EPG Info data - strange

    Between PTAT being screwed up on the Hopper3 due to Daylight Savings Time, our ABC being off due to the Hearst issues, and now this EPG stupidity, my wife is about to throw the Hopper3 out the window. She is NOT happy, and I'm the one who has to hear about it. I've been with Dish since the...

    Missed recordings, no trace of event even in Skipped

    I should have poked around more before posting, there's also a lengthy discussion of this exact problem (some of the same shows, even :) ) here.

    Missed recordings, no trace of event even in Skipped

    Now that you mention it, Big Bang Theory has been especially problematic for us, too.

    Missed recordings, no trace of event even in Skipped

    Thanks! Can you pass on to the appropriate parties that this kind of churn isn't cool? The entire reason we have a DVR is so that we don't have to worry about keeping track of what's coming up, especially when we're out of town. In this case it wasn't hard to catch up, but that's not always...

    Missed recordings, no trace of event even in Skipped

    Twice this week (that we know of :) ) our Hopper 3 has ignored a timer. These are timers that are set for "New", and both times a new episode of a show was ignored (not even Skipped as not new, just completely ignored as if the guide data didn't match) The first time was The Expanse on...

    PTAT time messed up

    Thanks for the update, MarkL. (We're noticing the same issue with our H3 system in Pittsburgh...)

    H3 344 Update?

    I have this issue as well, with an EHD that was working quite well with the Hopper3 and the Hopper that we had before it. So far, the spousal unit hasn't seemed to notice, or I'd be the one in trouble.

    Is the Hopper Internet Connector compatible with an H3?

    Glad that worked out for you!

    Is the Hopper Internet Connector compatible with an H3?

    You only need a tap if you're connecting a HIC alongside a Hopper. The HIC's have a coax out which can feed a Joey.

    Is the Hopper Internet Connector compatible with an H3?

    I use HIC's with the Hopper 3 -- one in the wiring closet taking a tap before the Hopper 3, then one in the living room and one in the sunroom, each feeding a Joey and a switch for Ethernet devices in those rooms. So that certainly works; I've never tried using the Hopper 3 as a bridge. That...

    Hopper 3 folders clarification

    Thanks! That's exactly what I was hoping for - that's what our current Hoppers do when NOT using folders.

    Hopper 3 folders clarification

    I think this has been basically answered before in these forums, but I want a specific clear answer before I get in trouble with the spouse :) Right now we have 2 Hoppers ("his" and "hers" basically). We're thinking about switching to the Hopper3 after we get our roof redone (Dish has to come...

    OTA on Hopper3 question

    OK, thanks all. OTA isn't critical in this house, we mostly just use it for a few subchannels, but it would be nice. I'll have to investigate it it's possible to run another length of coax to that room.

    OTA on Hopper3 question

    Considering going from 2 Hoppers plus a Joey to a Hopper 3 plus 2 Joeys. The Hopper in the sunroom has an OTA adapter, the one in the mancave does not (because there's currently no easy way to run the antenna down there :-) ) If we switch I'd love to put the H3 in the mancave and replace the...

    H3 Folders

    This was a helpful thread for my household as well, many thanks to the original poster and responders! (I'd already gathered that this is how it works, but this gives me a nice concise summary to present to my wife :-) )

    Hopper 3/Carbon Folders

    Sounds like the software allows creating more than 5 folders in memory, but only persists 5 to the hard drive. So, when the Hopper reboots and reads back from storage, it only sees the 5 that were written previously.

    Hopper 3 folder?

    Sorted by title, or GROUPED by title? Makes a big difference in deciding if we can go from His & Hers Hoppers to one Hopper3 with His and Hers folders...

    I have more Hopper 3 questions

    2 Hopper 3s would be serious overkill for us, though. The goal would be one Hopper 3 and 2 Joeys rather than our current 2 Hoppers + 1 Joey, with smart folders to filter the shows. 2 Hopper 3's would just be adding to our costs with no real gain otherwise. YMMV.

    I have more Hopper 3 questions

    This is exactly why we have two Hoppers for two people (myself and my wife). We watch some shows together, and each have our own shows as well. She gets super-annoyed when one of "my" shows appears in her list, and I get frustrated by the horrible clutter if I try to put "my" shows in a folder...
