Hi there,

I'm totally new to any type of dish configuration. I've been on the Comcast train for about 10 years and about to hop, hop, hop off to the Hopper.

I am curious about the PrimeTime Anytime option. I've read a bunch of posts on the forum and think I understand how it works except for on thing. How does the Primetime Anytime option work in harmony with set Season Pass recordings?

So, for example - I turn PrimeTime Anytime on. That uses a tuner to get all 4 networks. But, I also want to set Season Passes for my favorite shows so I don't have to remember to save these from PrimeTimeAnytime. Let's say one of these shows is American Idol (I know I know, it's my wifes favorite). She sometimes will keep these things for weeks until she has a chance to catch up. If she sets that as a Season Pass, how does the Hopper record that (1 tuner or 2 tuners)? How does it organize it in the menu -- only under PrimeTime, does the show get its own folder, etc.?

Thoughts?
