maybe it should be obvious and maybe I'm just not awake, but what is the USB "output" on the GO used for? Or maybe "how" would be a better question since output should be self-evident.
I thought it was for your personal pics and videos meanin not dish shows.

Just looked at that, and you are probably right but there is no actual reference to that particular USB port - is there any sort of "manual" for this device? I'm assuming that copying from my phone for instance, to the GO would probably use this port? The typical cable would work. I'll have to play with it.
"Personal content such as pictures and videos can be transferred from your mobile device to your HopperGO using the DISH Anywhere app. To view transferred content, plug your HopperGO directly into your PC or Mac using a USB cable"
I thought I had read (somewhere) that any programming I moved to the "GO" would be a "transfer", meaning it would be gone from my H3. That isn't happening for the most part. I was moving a block of NCIS recordings yesterday, and 2 or 3 of them triggered a popup telling me that they would "no longer be available on the Hopper" (or something to that effect). I bailed on those because I didn't want to lose them on the Hopper. But all the other recordings I've copied have been just that - copies. Is this supposed to be true?
carrier? I'm not sure I follow.... these were all episodes of the same program, recorded from the same channel. Only 2 or 3 gave me a message about being "no longer available on the Hopper".
ahh... that's good to know. In my case, I was having trouble with NCIS: Los Angeles on a non-premium channel (ESQNT).
Why? They have maintained that there are no plans to do that, since the beginning... And they are buddy buddy with Apple... Seems they have made their decision to blatantly say no to this.
This is true, and something that has already been done in their back offices. It's called capitalism and considered an acceptable loss. Doesn't really affect bottom dollar nor planned revenues.
