Timer Backup

[sethwell]

i know that the new VIP722k with the new remotes is suppose to have the ability to back up timers and such, but i was just using the slingguide/Dish Remote Access and it dawned on me that it seems like it would be pretty easy to add that function to the website. say a user was going to have to replace or upgrade a receiver. why couldn't they just log into slingguide, back up timers, then after they get the new receiver, upload the timer list to the new unit?

Charlie, if you read this thread, you might see if the guys could make this happen. just a suggestion.

But cost Dish more money! Charlie doesn't like to go where more money is to be spent.

There's a "feedback" button on the slingguide website just for these suggestions.

i did send the same thing into the feedback, but thought maybe one of the dish people might see it on here too. i just think it would be good.
