Is that something that can be fixed with a software update?
No the hardware does not support it.

I have not heard of anything about a 4K Joey 2.0 either...

I am sure one will come just when is the question. 4K is still morphing and changing... HDR / HDR 10 / HDR 10 / Dolby Vision and so on... (I like Dolby Vision the best myself) :)
 
Hard... when the decided to switch from XIP to ZIP technology. The 4K Joey was designed for XIP.

The 4K Hopper uses ZIP.

The 4K joey will NEVER have PIP.

Sometimes I wish they wouldn't announce features which they are not sure they will ever launch. For example the Hopper 3 brochure given out at CES says the Hopper 3 multiview will do 8 channels at once. :D

The best route to go is to have dual H3s instead of a H3 and 4K Joey. That would add about $170 to the $50 for the 4K Joey. Add a dual OTA device to each H3 and you have 4TBs of internal memory, 36 tuners, up to 6 2TB EHDs, PIP at the 2 4k tvs, Multiview at each 4K TV. Additional Joeys can be set to see either H3s.

But the Joey doesn't recieve from the LNB it gets all its programming from the Hopper so why should the tech used for the hopper make any difference.
You'll never convince me that is the reason

Awesome setup.

That does work great. It would be even better if I could do like I had before the H3 and have all H3 and no Joeys.
