    PTAT Not Saving to My Recordings

    Update: I adjusted all of my PTAT timers to have no shoulder times in the recording. So far Revolution has been saved to My Recordings. I'll know on Thursday if Elementary works. Thanks for the advice. My wife is happy, which makes me happy, which makes the CSRs at Dish happy. :D

    PTAT Not Saving to My Recordings

    Interesting thought. I was under the impression that with PTAT something like that wouldn't be an issue because it records everything on the channel anyway. I'll check it out.

    PTAT Not Saving to My Recordings

    I wonder if they are not properly tagged as new episodes in my market. Anyone in the Phoenix area having issues with these shows? As an experiment, I just set the timer to record all episodes. We'll see what happens this week.

    PTAT Not Saving to My Recordings

    I know this was talked about some time ago, but I could not locate the thread to see if there was a resolution. I set timers to record a bunch of of network series. Most do what they are supposed to do - save a copy from PTAT to My Recordings. But there are 2 series (that I know of) that will...

    Horrible BDs. Worse Reporting Policy.

    When you report the second one, you don't have that option any longer. They tell you to add it back to your queue manually.

    Horrible BDs. Worse Reporting Policy.

    It seems as if every BD I get lately has problems. They either won't load at all, or will freeze somewhere in the middle of a movie. What is even worse is that I get penalized for reporting a problem. Instead of them shipping a new disk out right away, I have to now add it back to the queue...

    My quest to get DLNA working on the Hopper...

    Save yourself a headache and do what I did. Build an inexpensive HTPC (less than $300) with an HDMI output running Windows 7 Media Center. You'll get full 1080p output as opposed to the Hopper's 1080i. You don't need to deal with DLNA. You can plug directly into your receiver for video and audio...

    Features I Would Like (Along With Bugs I Would Like Fixed)

    I'll throw one in. The guide needs to stay on the custom list I select. It randomly goes back to My Channels.

    Shows disappearing from my recordings

    I'm missing 3 episodes of Scandal, 1 episode of GCB, and a few episodes of SVU. There could be more, but I have not looked that deep into it. I wonder if the Hopper is not picking up the flag that tells it it is a new episode.

    Joey Freeze-up?

    I got my new Joey a few days ago. This one is working perfectly. No freeze ups.

    DLNA Video Format

    I gave up on DLNA for a several reasons. I could never get the video to play smoothly no matter what I did. Most of the above was due to poor ripping software/settings, although Handbrake just came out with Blu Ray support and it works like a champ. But the Hopper still had intermittent...

    Recording network show with PTAT

    I can confirm that is how it works. Set your timers as normal for the shows you want to keep. They'll still record as part of PTAT but they will appear in the main DVR folder.

    DLNA Video Format

    I was able to get a blue ray ripped to MP4 to play using TVMOBILi, but it was far from smooth playback. Using Windows 7 directly just gave me a blank screen. Same with TVersity. My network is completely hardwired so I can pretty sure it is not a bandwidth issue. I think the streaming video...

    Joey Freeze-up?

    I have the same problem. Did some troubleshooting with Dish's online support, which was nothing more than to reset the unit and plug it directly into the wall (bypassing the power strip). I had done all of that before I even contacted them anyway. The chat took about 2 minutes before he said he...

    DLNA Video Format

    I know DLNA is kind of up in the air right now. Some people can get it to work, others can't. I guess I am one of the lucky ones that can see the media servers on my network. I have a Windows 7 PC that I have set up to share, I installed TVersity, and just for good measure I installed TVMOBiLi...
