That's what I do for all shows I want to transfer to my I-pad . I set a series timer and have it go to my folder.

But Auto Hop is such a great feature. It's not that I can't push the skip button because I do that on other shows that don't hop. It just FEELS like a big loss because it was such a great feature. I got the Hopper after Auto Hop was already a feature so no I didn't have a Hopper without it. Yes, we waited to Auto Hop everything that had it. 7 days we don't wait. I would have preferred a "3 day no skip at all then Auto Hop after that" to the 7 day delay to Auto Hop. That would have forced folks to watch commercials in the first 3 days and then those that wait can auto hop. Now very few will use auto hop on CBS at all I predict. Big win for CBS. Big loss for Hopper customers. I can't imagine DISH got enough from CBS in this deal to trade 7 days of no Auto Hop to CBS.
Just as it is the networks and channel owners that cause all the other issues as well (forced bundling, contract negotiation extortion, over-inflated price hikes, etc)
Same here, CBS is our most watched network. We are too excited to watch our favorite shows and can't wait 7 days to view them. We have tried, but no luck.Maybe someday this will all blow over in the distance far far future we will have immediate AutoHop and all channels. Doesn't hurt to wish!!
Am I missing something? What prevents you from watching your favorite shows within 7 days?
Sometimes pushing a button is hard.
I think he is saying he isnt going to wait the 7 days before autohop becomes avail. He'll watch it before then.
Nothing prevents us from watching our favorite shows within the 7 days. We usually watch them the next day or two and get caught up on the weekends when needed. We have just gotten spoiled not to have to press the magic button.
Yeah. Don't want to get thumb cramps.
Yep and also the wear and tear on the Skip Forward button. LOL
...and use the 30-second skip-ahead button like you have to do with any non-PTAT show.
Screw CBS. I'm waiting the 7 days before I watch their shows. No one where I work talks about TV, so it will just be this week I won't watch CBS, then I'll resume next week with autohop. I use autohop with every show I possibly can. No fiddling with the remote for the 42 minutes a show is on, and I don't forget to skip forward as I'm doing about 3 other things at the same time anyway.
