1:00am Nightly Reboots

[CubsWin]

Has there ever been any indication that changes will be made to allow us to customize the scheduled reboot time on the Hopper? This is my #1 biggest complaint with the Hopper and Dish has taken a huge step back here as compared to their previous receivers.

1:00 am is an inconvenience for me, as that is often the time I am lying in bed listening to music on one of the SXM channels or a podcast through DLNA. Since I'm not "watching" the TV, I don't know when the popup occurs so I'm not able to cancel the reboot. To make matters worse, if I was listening to a podcast, there is then no way to get back to the same position I was at before the reboot. It is either start it over from the beginning or just forget about it.

It seems like it should be relatively simple to allow the user to choose a reboot time during a specified window, as was the case on the 622 and 722. Is anyone from Dish listening?

This is the third thread on this subject this week, sorry but the answer is still not as of yet.

As noted int several threads, this is on Dish's list. But the date when it is expected to be fixed is yet to be determined. There are higher priorities, such as EHD and app problems.
