Can't Transfer All Recordings to EHD

[rdale]

I am moving Friday morning and thanks to DIRT help am upgrading from the original Hopper to HWS. I hooked up an EHD last night to transfer all my recordings. It did all except the four most recent network shows (Hells Kitchen, SYTYCD, etc) from this week. When I go to the transfer menu it says I have nothing to transfer, but they clearly are showing up in my Hopper folder list.

How do I get them over?

I'm on S440 and I have reset the receiver to try again with no change.

Go into the PTAT settings and change the retention to 2 days. The default is 8 days.

Elaborating on what Thomas said, even if it is a "saved" program, you cannot transfer it if it is still in the PTAT folder, waiting to expire.

rdale,

I am more than happy to help you with this today! Do you see an error message number? What type of receiver are you transferring them from? Please PM me w/ the phone number on the account to better help you.

Thanks

No error at all, it simply does not show those recordings in the transfer screen. I have the original Hopper. I will PM you - thanks!

rdale, the others in this thread are correct. Any PTAT recordings will not be allowed to transfer to EHD until after the PTAT expiration which is 8 days by default. If you change that to two days in the settings then the shows should be transferable after 2 days (and you might need to wait for an overnight update).

Thanks for clarifying - somehow I missed that. I disabled PTAT earlier thinking that may have been it. I'll try the 2 day tweak when I get home (installer comes tomorrow morning so hopefully that's in time )

Thanks to all. The 2 day setting did the trick.
