In the past, you could select a show within the Guide (that would begin on the same day) and continue watching any channel. Then, Hopper would switch to selected channel. It was very convenient.
For instance, I was watching a show. It was around 1:20 pm last Sunday. I opened guide. There was a soccer game that would start at 2 pm on my local channel. Satellite channel, not OTA. 'Change the channel' option was not there. So, I asked the Alexa + lady to remind me at 2 pm.
Any reason Dish got rid of this feature? I used it a lot.
 
Not as convenient as before...

  • Go to the future event in the guide. Press select and make a timer for it.
  • Edit the Timer (quick way to edit is to immediately select the show again the guide, might have to move curser off cell then go back to it again)
  • In the Edit Timer page, change Type to "Autotune"
It'd be nice if they had an Autotune option at the first step.
