I tried setting up an auto tune timer on the Vip222k dish receiver for half an hour after the time I set the daily auto update to. If the Hopper had but one more tuner!! why would you connect 4 TVs to a 3 tuner device anyway? So the auto update was resulting in many recordings of the dish screen saver on windows media center.
#Dish auto turn off manual
(lite bulb! I can set the settings for this particular manual recording to only keep one episode, so no pile up of trash recordings I am so smart)Ī Pain indeed! I just switched to dish a month ago, we have a DVR upstairs that powers two bedrooms, but downstairs we use windows media center with an xbox360 extender for DVR on the other two TV's. You should be able to accomplish something similar on a Tivo. I will have one trash recording to delete everyday but it will not take up much space.
So I then set up a manual recording in WMC for like 3 minutes on some random channel about half an hour after the auto update just to get that select command sent autonomously. Unfortunately You can not edit this feature to send the "select" command before the channel number, it occurs after and this would mean the first recording after the update would happen on some random channel instead of the one it is supposed to. So I then edited the channel change settings in WMC to include the "select key". lots of recordings of that black screen saver with the bouncing dish logo and helpful hints". I played with the timings a bit but could not get the dish receiver to turn back on after the update. A Pain indeed! I just switched to dish a month ago, we have a DVR upstairs that powers two bedrooms, but downstairs we use windows media center with an xbox360 extender for DVR on the other two TV's.
