    Starting up Hopper in am always checking tuners?

    Mine doesn't do that. Are you cutting the power to it (unplugging or turning of power strip or something), or just turning it off with the remote?

    QUESTION - What Bugs or Usability Issues do you have with your Hopper?

    After using the red button last night to pause one show, then switch tuners to another show the Joey would pixelate and the the picture would be jumpy. At first I thought it was bad signal, but after rewinding it would play fine for a bit then start to do it again.

    Acquiring Satellite Signal

    About how long does it take the hopper to acquire the signal? My installer came today. He checked the signal coming into the Hopper, getting good signal. We have been stuck on acquiring satellite signal for about 30 minutes now. It says progress 5 of 5.

    Mirror Tvs with a Joey
