I have a Hopper in my Living Room and Joey in the Kitchen. 99% of the time they are on the same program. Unfortunately, the picture and sound are slightly out of sync between the two TV's. How easy would it be for me to set up the Joey to mirror the Hopper and would this fix the delay between the two? My current set up is 2 Hoppers and 4 Joeys on a DuoNode.
 
Don't know of any way besides running HDMI or component directly to the other tv. I have mine mirrored wirelessly, but it also has a slight delay, like MOCA. Realize also that the tv you are furthest from will have a slight delay no matter what due to the speed of sound.
 
If I use HDMI from my 622 to both my nearby TV, and also to my wireless unit for my bedroom TV, there is no delay/echo. However, if I use HDMI to the nearby TV, and use Component/RCA to the wireless unit, there is def an annoying delay/echo. Hadn't occurred to me that Joey via MOCA would have same sort of delay/echo.
 
I realize there would be some sound delay but when I had it mirrored on my old setup the delay was unnoticeable. With the current system the whole image is a full second off. I thought it might be due to the Joey accessing a different tuner and hoped that mirroring them would force them to use the same tuner and get them in sync. I was hoping to do this using the current wiring but if not, I will just mute the Kitchen and turn up the Living Room sound.
