I just upgraded my hopper 2 to hopper 3. So far love it. One exception on the 40.0 remote I had 4 learned codes that would allow me power up everything and do a couple of tv functions. The 54.0 shows it learns the codes but they do not work. Tried TV codes, amplifier codes, different buttons. Again shows to have learned the codes but they do not work as they did on the 40.0. Seems when you push the learned button you get a quick flash on the indicator, on the 40.0 you get a steady light until you release the button. Anyone successful with learning the 54.0 or experiencing the same issue
 
Am I just missing it (an altogether possible possibility!) or is there no "SEARCH" function on the 54.0? I use that fairly often with my other remotes. I like this new one - with that one exception.

Voice search works good.

Yeah...the Voice Search button replaced the old regular search button. If you want to do a text search instead, you can hit the Voice (microphone) button followed by the adjacent OPTIONS button.

Just click the mic and hit options or select and the search page opens

Well silly me! It never occurred to me to hit the "mic" button when I don't plan to talk! LOL!

Seriously though, I never use the voice-thing, so I guess I never noticed that. Fortunately your tip works even when I don't plan to talk, so that's cool......
Thanks Hip! You're .... well, you're one Hip (and cool) Kat!! :)

There's probably some technical reason, but What I don't understand is why the "search" function wasn't an option for the 2 programmable keys on the bottom? That would've solved and cured all the ills and evils of the world ;)
 
I can only think they were thinking of choices that didn't have an assigned button on the remote and since the Voice part only works when a Hopper is connected to the internet, then it's basically a Search Button
