I just got my system install - cool. I have used TIVO in the past. My question is how do I set it to record ALL upcomming episodes and not just weekly, daily or M-F
what is the diferance between DVR setting and AUTO
Dish's DVR's at the moment are more like VCR's in that they're set to record a particular time slot. Tivo uses a name based system which records a show by name no matter what time it's on. What you are specifically refering to is Season Pass which will record an entire season of a particular show.
Dish will be adding these features (NBR) later this year....so they say.
Read you instruction manual or ask your installer/seller. Auto is autotune it changes the channel automatically but dosen't record. DVR records the program. If you want to record a program with multiple episodes, use search then program each episode into the timers. Pain in the butt method but the closest that DISH comes to a TiVo "WISHLIST/SEASON PASS".
