Having Issues with the new Carbon UI? Please post them here!

Remember DO NOT CALL DISH about issues with your Hopper if you are using this UI!
 
When I select from the Sources menu another Hopper to view a recording, I cannot get the recording to play. I select the recording to view but there is noting to select to start it. Tried selecting the remote play button and nothing happens.
 
When viewing a program and you press the "Search" key, it would pre-fill that program name in the search field. Hitting enter would show all instances of that show, including upcoming viewings, episodes on your DVR, etc.

Now it makes it # 0 in the "popular search" list and selecting it just gives you the "Info" screen for that episode. It no longer finds other episodes.

I did, by accident, hit a key (Cancel ?) that actually gives the old behavior but can't remember it now.
 
Home Media plays from my Playon server just fine

Edit: noted that when getting out of a video it takes you all the way out to live tv.

I have the media server on my Asus router enabled and also have a Plex Media Server running on one of our PCs (both pointing at the same data). I will double-check both of them again
 
I noticed that just like the release software, can't play Playon recordings. Difference is it doesn't try and then give an error.

After about 30 minutes I still have the standby screensaver..... Is that normal or should I be seeing something else?

After hitting download now, mine rebooted and stayed on the standby screen for a couple minutes then went to the downloading screen.

Is the Joey being used ? Is there a timer that's set off a recording ?

Worst case, just try the Play, Play, Recall steps again. Until it does start, you don't have to worry about interrupting the process. When it does start, walk away.
 
When swapping between to paused programs, it now behaves like DTV's "Double Play" feature. Instead of staying paused after swapping, the program automatically resumes. Not a big deal, just different.
 
I've unplugged all of my Joey's. I have two HWS, it's doing the same thing on both. It will eventually say the receiver is off-duty that software S529 is up to date and update the guide.
