View Full Version : 508 missing Mon-Fri record option

I finally got rid of Comcast digital cable and went with a 508 and a quad to connect my 5000 and a future receiver in the kid's playroom. Mark at Dish Depot fixed me up, his service was excellent.

Overall I'm very happy with the 508, and the quad is slick as snot. I was glad not to have to figure a spot in the attic or in the crawl for an SW44.

Anyway... I searched this problem and did not see any other reports. Maybe I'm not up to fully up to date with software (it's on 168) but I don't see an option in the PVR screen to record a show Mon-Fri. I have the once, weekly, daily option but no Mon-Fri.

Anybody seen this?

Be sure you're not trying to set the timer from a Saturday or Sunday guide.

For instance, my local 10:00pm news appears in the guide seven days a week. But if I try to set a timer for it from the guide entry for a Saturday or Sunday, the Mon.-Fri, option isn't available. However, if I try to set a timer for it from the guide entry for Monday through Friday, it does.

:blush:

Everything I was looking at was over the weekend. That makes perfect sense.
