Get a Hopper 3. Create one folder for you and one for her. When you set a program to record, you can designate which folder, if any, you want it to be saved to. You can also move recordings from one folder to another after the fact.
Do your recordings to folders. We do that here, a folder for my wife, a folder for me. Stuff we watch together get saved to the open screen. To do this, press DVR, Options, Manage Folders, and Create Folders. Open your Timers screen and edit the timer. At the bottom of the Timer edit screen is the place to point your timer to the folder you wish it to go to.
The others have suggested a Hopper 3 and folders which is a great suggestion but another option might be for two Hopper 2's, one for each of you. Hopper 2's have three tuners each so if three tuners is enough for each of you then that might work for you.
And
to the forum.
Regular prices would be $15 for a Hopper 3 and $7 for a Joey 3 or $22. Two Hopper 2's would be $30 for a difference of $8 monthly.
But the upfront cost for a Hopper 3 might be more than two Hopper 2's.
Isn't new Customers still $12 for a Hopper?? Or is that history? Solidsignals has a Hopper 3 for $229 now
New customers are $5 for a Hopper Duo, $10 for a Hopper 1, 2 or 3 and $5 for a Joey. That's why I specified 'regular prices' which are higher at $10 for a Duo, $15 for a Hopper 1, 2 or 3 and $7 for a Joey. I didn't know if the OP was an existing customer or not.
