If your Hopper doesn't get AutoHop on all eligible PTAT shows ...

[oldengineer]

One of my Hoppers has consistently missed the AutoHop option on about half of eligible shows. After phone calls, PM'ing and online chat complaints I tried an experiment 2 nights ago. I disabled PTAT, RBRed the Hopper, and then re-enabled PTAT. It may be voodoo magic but for the past 2 nights I've had red kangaroos on all eligible shows. They don't get all enabled right at 2AM like they're supposed to, and in fact, last nights Mentalist and NCIS LA didn't get it until after 5AM, but by 6:30AM my PTAT folder had all red roos except, of course, for Fox News.

I'm now 3 for 3. All of Wednesday's PTAT shows have the kangaroo. The CBS shows CSI and Criminal Minds didn't get enabled until after 5AM again but I can live with that.

I was watching some shows last night on CBS with Autohop. I am not sure if the networks are doing something to counter Autohop, But last
Night it seemed like I was getting like 2-3 seconds of a commercial.

I see the same thing at the beginning of a break and also a shorter spot at the end.
