Thank you again for adding to the discussion. I think we all know the current capabilities, what I'm looking for is future capabilities. Once again, is this being worked on by dish for a future upgrade or is it not possible to do?

Thought I'd give this a bump. Thanks for all the replies. It seems it's definitely on a lot of people's wish list. I was hoping to get a reply from dish tech as to whether this is being worked on, or not possible at all. Just to clarify, can Hopper1 see and play the EHD on Hopper2?

Will we ever have the ability to see and play our EHD'S from any Joey or Hopper?

"Not Ready for Primetime Hopper" strikes again. Same problem western arc.

My setup is Hopper1/Joey1 linked and Hopper2/Joey2 linked. The hard drives in both Hoppers are available on all four boxes. The problem is, Hopper1 has an EHD attached that is only recognized by Hopper1/Joey1. The EHD does not appear on the Hopper2/Joey2 boxes. Is this normal? Is there a fix?

Am I doing this right? I hit save series for certain shows in prime time. This set up a separate timer on a separate tuner for those shows. What a waste of a tuner if the show is recording on two tuners at the same time. I deleted the timer, now I'm forced to remember to save to DVR after...

Getting Hopper and two Joeys tomorrow. I've been looking for answers for hours using search, and scrolling the mountains of pages on the site, and I'm still confused. I found this explanation from dish, and it is confusing. It states in one sentence there are 3 tuners and then follows in the...

Thanks thechaz. I wasn't going to reply because the response started characterizing me as misinformed or hallucinating. The facts are: I do not have a sling adaptar. I do have a 722K I am connected to broadband. On Sunday 10/30/2011 I connected to my home DVR from my computer at work. I saw my...

Thanks Zach. How do you account for the fact that I was able to watch DVR shows up till a few days ago, and now I can't. It tries to sell me a sling adaptar.

I have a 722K without a sling adaptar. I have been remotely accessing my DVR through Dish online for quite awhile and watching full recorded programs. Within the last few days when I go online to access my DVR and try to watch a show, I get a prompt telling me I need a sling adaptar. The site...

C'mon Zach, what have u got for me?

I've been watching my recorded DVR programs without a sling box for quite a while. All of a sudden when I try to access my DVR recorded shows from my work computer, a prompt tells me I need a sling box. What's the deal? It worked before, but not now. :confused:

All the ads the stations are running reminding us of the switch all say we should re-scan after the switch. Does this mean the stations are going to switch frequencies for the digital signals they already are broadcasting?

Just started having the audio drops a few weeks ago on my dvr playback on local ABC and FOX. These are the only stations that broadcast their digital signal on the vhf band. Coincidence or the underlying problem?

Is TV2 supposed to have access to an added USB drive? I ask because mine doesn't allow it. :(

1) When did you call? April 5th 12:00PM 2) How would you rate your call on a scale from 1 to 10 (1 being the worst and 10 being the best) 8 3) How many 921's / 622's did you trade up or want to trade up? one 921 for 622 and one 811 for 622 4) We you able to upgrade? If not why? yes...

I have AEP with HD, Voom, locals, Superstations and CBSHD. When I switch to the Platinum Pack, will I be able to keep the Superstations and CBSHD?

When a new customer orders service in an area that dish1000 is available, and they ask for the HD package, do they automatically get a dish1000?

With E*'s obvious disappointment with the initial performance of MPEG4 in testing, and their announcement of turbo MPEG2, I am going to wait and see what format new HD content is in. With the new HD content up in test mode it shouldn't be long. From a marketing point of view, they should add...

Any token MPEG2 HD offerings will depend on whether the MPEG4 receivers are ready in a warehouse somewhere, and the quantity of them. If E* can roll out MPEG4 with any significant impact, don't count on any token offerings. If the rollout is mostly lipservice then a token offering may be the...

I know E* is known for saying one thing and doing another, but don't expect any more HD in MPEG2. The space is being made for MPEG4. By slowly introducing MPEG4 on the wings (61.5 and 129), there will be no interruption of the already existing service in MPEG2. If they add HD programming in...

...they can be more aggressive in landing other available stations. I know that Dish promises being broken is a running joke, but with pressure from D*, cable, and now FIOS in the MPEG4 arena, I think the November announcement sounds reasonable. This scenario allows them to introduce MPEG4...

I thought the lease option was only avaiable to new more important customers. How did you get the lease option?

The dpp44 switch and the use of combiners and separators will allow you to use one cable to the receiver to carry all the signals. Two signals to the receiver and one back out to the other set all through one cable. Pretty neat, huh....

What? No 480i.
