No Auto-Hop for Gotham this week ?

[ohioankev]

I have Auto-Hop enabled for this weeks Sleepy Hollow but no Auto-Hop for this weeks Gotham. All of the other network shows have Auto-Hope enabled but Gotham is the odd man out. Has anyone else experienced this or is it just my Hoppers?

I have PTAT enabled on two of my HWSs with two Gothams saved on both Hoppers. Episode 1 has AutoHop and Episode 2 does not. Both Hoppers show the same.

This has been known to happen occasionally on Fox shows.

It happens occasionally on other channels too.

My Gotham didn't have auto hop either.

Remember that autohop is for select shows only. Most shows will have at least one viewing throughout the season without autohop. I suspect it is to keep broadcasters happy, that not all shows are being hopped. Kind of their ace in the hole for the law suits. Or even possibly a drm issue.

While you may be correct, I've never heard of that.

Which part?

That's a new one on me, too.

 

[mruk69]

Mine also didn't auto hop.

 

[lucky86]

One show per season without auto hop. I've never heard of that, nor do I recall that happening to any of the shows I watch.

Funny because Sleepy Hollow was next and it Auto Hopped.

Remember the hotel hell discussion

 

[thomasjk]

I've seen random shows without Auto Hop but they are a very small number overall.

Yep, Fox.

 

[ChadT41]

About the DRM I mentioned earlier, that was just a gut feeling. But if Gotham is a Fox show, it may just be a deal with fix currently. Isn't their lawsuit still going on. Could be Dishs way to go "told you so".

Maybe each show has its own person in charge of coding autohop and Gotham's person called in sick that day.

It is done manually. Mistakes will happen.

Different channel different show but this week I had autohop for CBS Monday shows the Big Bang theory (2 episodes) and Ncis la

But not for scorpion

Who knows why but when I have posted in the past it's hit or miss...some got it autohop others didn't

I don't think we have ever really heard a definitive answer as to why
