Kangaroo on Hopper

[Dishusercan]

I turned on my hopper and there is a kangaroo in the bottom right side of my screen, and it doesn't go away. I changed channels and turned off the receiver and it stays.

It's the sign of a tuner conflict...someone trying to access or change one of the currently used tuners, IIRC. Perhaps is one of your Joeys or Hopper mirrored? Happened to a few times with a mirrored set.

It means someone else is also watching the same channel.

Press cancel to clear it.

I have never seen this in my setup

 

[Dishusercan]

Ok, it's gone now

You can change the menu settings so it doesn't make you see when you are sharing a tuner with another room. But that's all it means, you are sharing a tuner with another room/device

I'm watching a DVR event and not sharing any thing. Hopper kangaroo is there and I cant get rid of it.

 

[ChadT41]

Is it the same one as uptop? Is there someone that could be "resuming" your recording in another room? If not, reset box and try again.

 

[bnewt]

What are the steps to turn this feature on/off? Is it just for mirroring or for hopper/joey linked?

 

[ChadT41]

It's just for when the two tvs are watching the same thing. Can even be two joey linked to the same program. When I get home, I will post the steps to turn it off. Should be in menu>settings but I forget the path after that.

In the Whole-Home Setup Display Settings (Yellow - Blue - 4 - Display Settings) there are two settings, MoCA Quality Icon and Channel Change Notification, but I don't think they have anything to do with the Kangaroo.

I tried these last night on both the hws & linked joey........nothing happened
