I am also still on 358. And that's where it is staying till Dish updates it.
Yep, my receiver is working just fine and the last time I tried to force it to update, it didn't work and about a week later I checked and it had updated, so I just let it take care of it on its own... I have it set to do a reboot at 4am daily as I'm asleep and ain't watching nothing at that time of the night...
I suspect Josh does. Maybe he could share some.
I forced an update to H262 on one of my H2's. I'll let the other one go the "natural" route.
Glad it wasn't my imagination since I forgot to look at what time it started and then I fell asleep and when I woke up, it was probably over an hour.
Forgot to ask a question, what are considered hosts and what are considered clients?
Everything is fine with H362 with the exception of 2 recordings, so I'll describe the issue with visuals... All times are Pacific Daylight Savings Time (GMT -700) and I have already did a power cord reset with the same exact results.
This one #1 was recorded on H358 but did not watch it until H362, before watching it, the info screen did show 1 hour and 30 minutes remaining but this is after watching it, the actual recording is 1 hour and 30 minutes as shown on the right hand side but the left side sure shows a incorrect remaining time:
This one #2 was recorded on H362 before watching it, the info screen did show 1 hour and 30 minutes remaining but this is after watching it, the actual recording is 1 hour and 30 minutes as shown on the right hand side but the left side sure shows a incorrect remaining time:
So anyways, the problem is the playback which appears to be okay if I just watched, the replay seems to work but if I try skipping and I had only tried the first 20 minutes, what would happen is it will skip forward but at some point, it will actually go back to somewhere a few minutes before I started the original skip/forward. So for example, I can be at 5 minutes and it will show 7 minutes fine but then it skips back to the 2 minute mark and forward from there.
When I pause the playback, it doesn't show the current position either like it normally does as both recordings show something similar to this:
If I selected Star Over in any of the recordings and immediately pause it as fast as I can do it, it will say 620 hours remaining.

Got 362 yesterday morning. Skip fwd and back seem a little smoother than prior update, but still noticing when in multiview, if one of the quads are tuned to a OTA channel that quad is black with no preview. Did not do this prior to 360.
The host would be the Hopper which is the main unit in the system. The client is the Joey which takes its information from the Hopper.
Thank you for the pictures this helps a ton I will add them to the list of defects.
Most of the multiview issues were supposed to be fixed - I'll do some testing and work with engineers on this one as well. Thank you for the report.
Hoppers are hosts, joeys are clients with the exception of hopper+ (which is also a client).
Nothing that would make sense to anyone that's not working on the code themselves - it would just be "General video improvements and black screen recovery additions"
Thankfully, as of last night, I am still on 358.
That brought up a discussion with SWMBO. “Discussion” and I’m sticking to that expression!
Today we will review our Dish subscription level, and maybe consider dropping them when contract ends in a few months. I guess I’ll have to point out all the old movies we’ve DVR’d. Shudder- then she’ll want to watch them!

If you have already watched them what is your likelihood of watching them again. If you haven't watched them yet what is the likelihood that you will eventually get around to watching them. If there are movies that you really, really enjoy, can you simply purchase that movie via DVD/Blu-Ray or a streaming rental for that time that you might actually have to see it again? You can't get hooked on that EHD, or in your case EHDs, just because they are there.There are alternatives available.
Physical media is my go-to for movies I know I'll want to watch again...consequently, I have quite a collection of BD media that I've built up over the past 20+ years (a lot are DVD, but a lot are Blu-ray also).
Yep, even more than that, and more than 700 CDs, and over 300 LPs...
I should note that I record alot as even the same episodes of that show are shown multiple times a day is recorded and the other recorded episodes do not have the problem, seems to be only that specific time on both dates and that same program even though it's not the same episode. Other recordings also d not have the problem. Thanks for the explanation on the Host and Client thing even though Bobby already explained it, but thanks to the both of you.
I have more except it's packed in boxes when I moved in 2009 since I have cassette tapes, CDs, VideoCDs, LaserDiscs, LPs, DVDs, BluRay.
