But if you can access any program from any receiver (including hopper to hopper), then why would you need to transfer between them?
Because if Hopper 1 is full and a timer on Hopper 1 is about to fire, it will delete the oldest recording on Hopper 1 to make room for the new recording. If you could manually transfer titles from Hopper 1 to Hopper 2 to prevent this from happening, that would be beneficial. Yeah, you could use an EHD as a mediary to do the same thing, but it would take twice as long.But if you can access any program from any receiver (including hopper to hopper), then why would you need to transfer between them?
It wouldn't even need to be a feature request if full integration of timers, tuners, and DVR space with load balancing is implemented correctly.Oh OK. I didn't think about bumping right up against the capacity level. You're correct. To me that is something that is waaaaay down the list of wants. But I fully appreciate the desire for it in the future.

1.) MANUAL TIMERS. I would think that this would be obvious to Dish. Especially since their guide isn't always accurate or up-to-date.
