The dish hopper is for recording shows and movies, but you should not use this outside of the US since it needs to be hooked up via internet and they will see its outside the US. Maybe you can mask it but i wouldn't risk it.
You buy or sign up for the Go Anywhere option on your DISH account.
It's not available to non-DISH customers as far as I know
It should work perfectly here on a laptop, etc.
In Canada, we laptop Amazon video and hook it into the big TV.... HDMI cable
That's about as hi-tech as I get.......... and I need help for that !!!!
