    Yeah for sure. If I have to that’s what I will do. I do have some rock and roll specials on there too. I would hate to lose those.

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    Well, I suppose I best get to butt kissing to get a $90 Device. I like the idea of unhooking the dish before it’s killed that will buy me a little time. We are going streaming since we got taxpayers fiber installed a few months back. A friend of mine is an ISP, Fiber installer, has over air...

    Lol…I never knew that RCA patches were audio/video specific. No telling in the past 45+ years how many I hooked up wrong. I should know color coded I was a licensed electrician for 50 years. Poor old dell may not survive the trip. The power connection broke off the MB. No fix, new motherboard...

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    Will this be a hands off endeavor? How can I judge how much is on each DVD? When to stop the process and add another blank DVD? No way to gage the amount left on a DVD after a period of time? The hopper is already connected via HDMI I purchased the gold ends for better picture quality.

    Ok, makes sense. of the two items from Amazon that are shown which would you recommend? Of course one is 3 times the price but would it make any difference?

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    Comment, My Son in law works for Comcast tv and a Ex Direct TV employee. He has told my wife that the hopper will shut off if it’s being recorded. I can‘t see how the hopper knows wether the signal is passing trough a device that captures and records the signal or straight into the back of the...

    Back of tv. Good point…I haven’t a clue it’s never been used. I do have a 1 month old HP, but I don’t know where the software CD is or I would use it.

    Thanks Guys, I have the software for the player/burner on my old dell 2-in-1. It has 3 usb, 1 HDMI and 1 SD card Reader. The software you spoke of, where can I find it? I load on the Dell plug everything and start cooking?

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    I haven’t a clue what this is. If you are speaking of the portable one I will have to locate it. My kidneys failed last Jan. Was on dialysis 3 times a week. I was getting prepared for home dialysis so wife and Daughter had a room cleaning. It was on the head of my bed forever but it’s a mastery...

    Hard headed…. Now for a really stupid question. I plug a hdmi cable into the hopper then the other end into the tc?

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    If do then a cheap DVD burner should work. Just intercept the signal as it leaves the hopper dvr before it gets to the tv. That make sense?

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    So that being said, I should be able to capture the show as it comes out of the hopper dvr. Correct?

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    I can’t understand why I can’t capture/record the signal as it leaves the hopper going to the tv. Would a recording device not capture the signal downstream of the output to tv and record the shows. After the signal leaves the hoppers dvr it should not be encrypted. Correct? It enters the tv...

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    The dvd/blue Ray is not built in it’s a stand alone unit. Laptop to thin for it to fit. I suppose that will not matter. what I am trying to say is. If I put a recording device downstream of the hopper (between hopper and tv) it should record live shows. The hopper should not care what happens to...

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    Ok, I have a dvd/blue ray burned that hooks to a lap top via usb. Will that work? As you said it will only record what is “live” on the tv, not transfer the recordings. Or purchase a small dvr and do the same. Ok, I understand how the kill works now. Shuts off signal without a response back...

    Transfer Hopper 3 sling recordings

    Ok,, thanks. I will unhook the rg6 cable the day before and try to get some of the boys stuff. So even if I have a external HD with some shows loaded on it when dish Dish hits the kill I will lose those too? If it will work where would you suggest to purchase and what size? I suppose it will...
