H388 - Hopper 3 - 02/19/2025

[sklunk]

There are no compatibility issues with the 40 remote with the standard Hopper 3. It's just the Hopper+ that introduces them.

Right, but I was clarifying for Pepper's post. He said his wife wants the H+ removed and he questioned if the 40.0 would work without it. I was giving my actual experience without the Plus box ....

The 40 remote will work with the Hopper 3. But does not work well with the Hopper Plus and will never be officially supported.

Their agreement with Google is supposed to require a voice remote be used with the Hopper Plus.

Since there are some siuations where there are both SD and HD versions I think this was premature

Absolutely, stupidity on Dish's part.

Absolutely, stupidity on Dish's part.

So I guess Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo are all stupid because they aren't using the game pads from their original consoles as well right?

I guess all the TV manufacturers are stupid for not using the remotes that came with their original tvs too huh. Oh wait that would be no remote.

Things change...
