Can you access external drive from Dishanywhere?

Can you access external drive from Dish any where? Daughter is in college. She asked I have never tried it. I don't see that option. Thanks.

Only on some of the older receivers. You can't do it on Hoppers. If your daughter wants to look at programming that is on the EHD, you'll have to move it back to the Hopper.

thanks

Yup. Hopper is a step backwards from our 722 receivers IMHO. I have access to my EHD from DishAnywhere, but Hopper lovers don't. IIRC, it even alphabetizes the content so that I can easily see my dupes. I can't stand that CGA graphics quality Hopper GUI either. Yuck.

That looks like it should work. She is home enough for me to load it up. then she can watch it in her down time. Thanks great option! Whats the best price I can hope for?

that's why I that's why I sometimes access the hopper using my slingbox. I also get the PIP features and all other features that aren't available to DA.
